      CPU and System Topology

      Server Description

      A high-density memory configuration featuring strong single-core AMD EPYC performance for memory-bound workloads without local storage requirements.

      Memory OptimizedGeneral Purpose

      The Microsoft Azure E16-4as_v7 is a memory-optimized virtual machine featuring 4 dedicated vCPUs and 128.0 GB of RAM, yielding a high memory-to-core ratio of 32.0 GB per core. Powered by an AMD EPYC 9V45 processor operating at 4.5 GHz, the server delivers top-tier single-core CPU and single-threaded compression performance. However, its multi-core scaling is limited by its 2 physical cores, resulting in weak multi-threaded decompression benchmarks. The instance lacks local storage and complimentary public IPv4 addresses, relying on remote Premium Storage. This hardware profile provides a cost-efficient, resource-dense solution for memory-heavy, low-compute workloads such as in-memory databases, caching layers, and database operations, while remaining less suitable for highly parallelized computing tasks or large language model inference.

      Workload Profiles

      0.4Score
      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.
