      CPU and System Topology

      Server Description

      A high-memory virtual machine featuring dedicated AMD EPYC processing and exceptional single-core performance for memory-intensive enterprise workloads.

      Memory OptimizedGeneral Purpose

      Microsoft Azure E16-8as_v7 is an x86_64 memory-optimized virtual machine from the Easv7 family, running on the Microsoft Hyper-V hypervisor. It features an AMD EPYC 9V45 processor operating at 4.5 GHz with 8 dedicated vCPUs and 128.0 GB of RAM, providing a high memory-to-core ratio of 16.0 GB per core. The server lacks local storage and GPUs but is Premium Storage capable. Benchmarks highlight top-tier single-core CPU performance and single-threaded compression speeds, alongside average multi-core and memory bandwidth capabilities. This hardware profile delivers qualitative cost efficiency for memory-heavy workloads by offering substantial memory capacity without requiring excessive vCPU licensing. It is highly suited for database hosting, in-memory caching, text processing, and lightweight LLM text generation.

      Workload Profiles

      0.67Score
      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.
