      CPU and System Topology

      Server Description

      An ARM64-powered general-purpose virtual machine featuring dedicated cores, high memory bandwidth, and balanced resources for standard enterprise workloads.

      General Purpose

      Microsoft Azure D8ps_v6 is an ARM64-based general-purpose virtual machine from the Dpsv6 family, running on a 3.4 GHz Microsoft Neoverse-N2 processor with 8 dedicated physical cores and 8 vCPUs. It features 32.0 GB of system memory, providing a balanced 4.0 GB per core, but lacks local storage and integrated GPUs. Benchmark results show average performance for most general compute tasks, with a strong showing in memory bandwidth and single-threaded gzip compression. However, cryptographic operations represent a performance tradeoff, scoring in the bottom 25% due to the absence of AVX and AMX extensions. This instance is well-positioned for workloads such as static web serving, database operations, and lightweight application hosting where dedicated ARM resources offer a balanced, cost-efficient profile without the need for high-speed local storage.

      Workload Profiles

      0.9Score
      Precomputed compound score for Cache Intensive workloads. A weighted average (geometric mean) of benchmark scores compared to their medians: score = ∏ (x_i / m_i)^(w_i / Σw). The score of 1.0 represents a synthetic baseline server with the median performance of each component benchmark; 0.5 means roughly half the performance; and 2.0 means twice the performance of that reference profile. Component weights: 50% Redis RPS (pipeline=1, SET), 20% Redis RPS (pipeline=16, SET), 10% PassMark Memory Mark (composite), 10% Memory bandwidth (read, 16 MB ~ L3), 10% PassMark single-thread CPU. Rationale for component selection: In-memory key-value store workload, mixing direct Redis performance metrics with memory speed and latency benchmarks, and single-core CPU performance profiles.
