    CPU and System Topology

    Server Description

    A memory-optimized server featuring dedicated Intel Xeon cores, high-capacity local storage, and balanced performance for database and compilation workloads.

    Memory OptimizedStorage & Database

    Microsoft Azure DC24ds_v3 is an x86_64 memory-optimized server from the DDCSv3 family, running on Microsoft Hyper-V. It features 24 dedicated physical cores and 24 vCPUs powered by an Intel Xeon 8370C processor at 2.8 GHz, paired with 192.0 GB of RAM and 1843 GB of local storage. The instance delivers balanced performance, scoring 15933.0 on Geekbench multi-core and achieving a strong static web serving throughput of 43.73 GB/sec. While it performs strongly in image processing and small-scale LLM text generation, it exhibits a performance tradeoff on larger 70B parameter models due to the lack of GPU acceleration. This server is designed for memory-intensive workloads, database operations, and software compilation.

    Workload Profiles

    2.08Score
    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.
