    CPU and System Topology

    Server Description

    A high-compute, low-memory virtual server featuring dedicated AMD EPYC processors and massive local NVMe SSD storage for intensive database workloads.

    Compute OptimizedStorage & Database

    The Microsoft Azure D96alds_v7 is an x86_64 virtual machine powered by a 48-core AMD EPYC 9V45 processor running at 4.5 GHz, delivering 96 dedicated vCPUs. Part of the Daldsv7 family, this low-memory instance provides 192.0 GB of RAM (2.0 GB per core) alongside a substantial 5669 GB local NVMe SSD. Benchmark results place its CPU compute, cryptographic execution, and database operations in the top 10% tier. While its low memory-to-CPU ratio is a tradeoff for RAM-heavy applications, its high-speed processor and large local storage make it highly efficient for compute-bound tasks. It is optimized for high-throughput database operations, Redis caching, static web serving, and multi-threaded data decompression.

    Performance

    Workload Profiles

    3.9Score
    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.
