CPU and System Topology
Server Description
A memory-optimized virtual machine featuring dedicated AMD EPYC processing and high memory density for database and caching workloads.
Microsoft Azure E16as_v7 is a memory-optimized virtual machine powered by an AMD EPYC 9V45 processor running at 4.5 GHz on the Microsoft Hyper-V hypervisor. It features 16 dedicated vCPUs across 8 physical cores and 128.0 GB of RAM, establishing a high memory-to-vCPU ratio of 8.0 GB per core. While it lacks bundled local storage and GPUs, it is Premium Storage capable. Benchmarks highlight top-tier single-core CPU and text processing performance, alongside strong memory scores, though multi-core scaling and large-block memory bandwidth remain average. This configuration offers a cost-efficient resource profile for memory-heavy workloads that do not require massive parallelization. It is well-suited for database hosting, caching layers, text processing, and small-scale language model inference.
