    CPU and System Topology

    Server Description

    A memory-optimized virtual machine featuring dedicated AMD EPYC processors, high memory density, and local storage for database and enterprise workloads.

    Memory OptimizedStorage & Database

    The Microsoft Azure E16ads_v6 is a memory-optimized virtual machine from the Eadv6 family, powered by a 3.7 GHz AMD EPYC 9V74 processor. It features 16 dedicated vCPUs across 8 physical cores, 128.0 GB of RAM, and a 945 GB local storage disk. Operating on the x86_64 architecture under Microsoft Hyper-V, this instance delivers strong single-core CPU performance and top-tier text processing capabilities, though its large-block memory read bandwidth is a relative bottleneck. With its high memory-to-vCPU ratio and Premium Storage support, the E16ads_v6 is highly suited for memory-intensive databases, enterprise applications, and text-processing workloads.

    Workload Profiles

    0.9Score
    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.
