      CPU and System Topology

      Server Description

      A high-density, compute-optimized virtual machine featuring ninety-six dedicated Intel Xeon vCPUs and advanced matrix multiplication extensions for demanding processing workloads.

      Compute OptimizedGeneral Purpose

      Microsoft Azure D96ls_v7 is a compute-optimized virtual machine powered by a 96-vCPU Intel Xeon 6973P-C processor running at 4.2 GHz on the Microsoft Hyper-V hypervisor. Featuring 192.0 GB of RAM, this instance provides a lean 2.0 GB of memory per vCPU, making it highly cost-efficient for compute-heavy workloads that do not demand large memory footprints. The x86_64 architecture supports Intel AMX and AVX-512, driving top-tier performance in software compilation, cryptography, and vector calculations. Benchmarks show strong multi-core capabilities, with a Passmark CPU score of 104,787.21 and rapid bzip3 decompression. Lacking local storage, this Premium Storage capable instance is optimized for dedicated processing tasks. It is best suited for high-throughput web serving, software compilation, and medium-scale LLM inference.

      Workload Profiles

      5.6Score
      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.
