CPU and System Topology
Server Description
A high-frequency, compute-optimized virtual machine designed for processing-heavy workloads requiring dense CPU allocation and rapid multi-threaded execution.
Microsoft Azure D96als_v7 is a compute-optimized virtual machine powered by a 4.5 GHz AMD EPYC 9V45 processor. It provides 96 dedicated vCPUs across 48 physical cores, paired with 192.0 GB of RAM, resulting in a low memory-to-core ratio of 2.0 GB. Running on the Microsoft Hyper-V hypervisor, this x86_64 instance lacks local storage and bundled GPUs but supports premium storage. Benchmarks place its CPU performance in the top 10%, with a multi-core stress-ng score of 168119.86 and a Passmark CPU score of 109958.38. It delivers high-throughput memory bandwidth and strong integer performance, making it highly efficient for compute-bound workloads. The low memory allocation per core represents a tradeoff that reduces cost for processing-heavy tasks but limits memory-intensive applications. It is best suited for multi-threaded decompression, static web serving, and moderate-scale LLM inference.
