    CPU and System Topology

    Server Description

    A high-vCPU, compute-focused instance featuring dedicated Intel Xeon processors and a low memory-to-core ratio for high-throughput processing.

    Compute Optimized

    Microsoft Azure D96ls_v7 is an x86_64 compute-optimized virtual machine from the Dlsv7 family, running on Microsoft Hyper-V. Powered by a dedicated 4.2 GHz Intel Xeon 6973P-C processor with 48 physical cores and 96 vCPUs, it features 192.0 GB of RAM, resulting in a low memory-to-core ratio of 2.0 GB per vCPU. The instance lacks local storage and GPUs but supports Premium Storage. Benchmarks show top-tier multi-core performance, including a PassMark CPU score of 104,787.21 and a multi-threaded bzip3 decompression speed of 575.95 GB/sec. It also excels in Redis SET operations and static web serving. The low memory density makes it a cost-efficient option for compute-intensive workloads rather than memory-heavy databases. It is suited for high-throughput web serving, batch processing, and CPU-based machine learning inference.

    Workload Profiles

    5.54Score
    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.
