      Server Description

      A memory-optimized virtual server featuring dedicated Intel Xeon cores and a high memory-to-core ratio for stable database and compute workloads.

      Microsoft Azure DC24s_v3 is a memory-optimized server from the DCSv3 family, featuring 24 dedicated physical cores on an Intel Xeon 8370C processor running at 2.8 GHz. Built on the x86_64 architecture and managed via Microsoft Hyper-V, it provides 192.0 GB of RAM, establishing an 8.0 GB per core ratio. The instance lacks local storage and GPUs but supports Premium Storage. Performance benchmarks indicate average capabilities across most compute and memory tests, with a stress-ng multi-core score of 45527.64 and a Passmark CPU score of 41766.88. It demonstrates strong performance in image processing and small-scale LLM inference, though text generation speeds drop significantly for larger models. This hardware profile is suited for database operations, software compilation, and memory-intensive general-purpose workloads.

      Workload Profiles

      2.2Score
      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.
