      Server Description

      A balanced general-purpose virtual machine featuring dedicated AMD EPYC processors and secure virtualization for enterprise workloads.

      General Purpose

      Microsoft Azure DC16as_cc_v5 is a general-purpose virtual machine powered by a dedicated AMD EPYC 7763 processor running at 3.525 GHz on the Microsoft Hyper-V hypervisor. It features 16 vCPUs, 8 physical cores, and 64.0 GB of RAM, establishing a balanced 1:4 vCPU-to-memory ratio. The instance lacks bundled local storage but is Premium Storage capable, and it contains no GPUs. Performance benchmarks show strong single-core CPU capabilities and strong text generation speeds for small LLM models, while multi-core execution, memory bandwidth, and database operations perform in the average tier. This hardware profile is suited for general-purpose computing, web serving, and database workloads relying on external storage.

      Workload Profiles

      0.72Score
      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.
