    CPU and System Topology

    Server Description

    An Intel-powered virtual machine featuring high memory density and a bundled local SSD for memory-intensive enterprise workloads.

    Memory OptimizedStorage & Database

    Microsoft Azure E16d_v5 is a memory-optimized virtual machine from the EDv5 family, powered by an Intel Xeon 8370C processor with 16 dedicated vCPUs and 8 physical cores running at 2.8 GHz. It features 128.0 GB of RAM, yielding a high 8.0 GB per vCPU ratio, and includes a bundled 614 GB local SSD. Operating on the Microsoft Hyper-V hypervisor, this x86_64 server delivers strong memory performance, with cached read bandwidth reaching 834.28 GB/sec and Redis SET operations benchmarked at 14.9 million per second. It lacks GPU acceleration and public IPv4 addresses. The E16d_v5 is designed for memory-intensive workloads, including database operations, in-memory caching, and software compilation.

    Workload Profiles

    1.1Score
    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.
