    CPU and System Topology

    Server Description

    A single-core virtual machine featuring a high memory-to-CPU ratio and dedicated Intel Xeon performance for lightweight utility workloads.

    Memory OptimizedGeneral Purpose

    Microsoft Azure DC1ds_v3 is a single-core virtual machine from the DDCSv3 family, utilizing a dedicated Intel Xeon 8370C processor running at 2.8 GHz on the Microsoft Hyper-V hypervisor. It features 8.0 GB of RAM, a 77 GB local storage drive, and support for Premium Storage. The x86_64 architecture includes AVX-512 and cryptographic instruction sets. Performance benchmarks show average single-core capabilities, such as a Geekbench single-core score of 1626.0 and efficient single-threaded compression, but multi-core and memory bandwidth metrics are limited due to the single-vCPU constraint. Qualitatively, this server offers a high memory-to-core ratio for a single-vCPU instance, making it a cost-efficient choice for workloads that do not require parallel processing. It is best suited for lightweight single-threaded applications, basic text processing, and small utility services.

    Workload Profiles

    0.183Score
    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.
