    CPU and System Topology

    Server Description

    A memory-optimized virtual machine featuring dedicated Intel Xeon processors, 128 GB RAM, and local SSD storage for database workloads.

    Memory OptimizedStorage & Database

    Microsoft Azure E16ds_v4 is a memory-optimized virtual machine from the EDSv4 family, powered by an Intel Xeon 8272CL processor running at 2.6 GHz. It provides 16 dedicated vCPUs, 128.0 GB of RAM, and 614 GB of local SSD storage. Operating on the Microsoft Hyper-V hypervisor, this x86_64 server supports AVX-512 instructions. Benchmarks show average performance across the board, with a Geekbench multi-core score of 7658.0 and a Redis SET throughput of 13.72 million operations per second. While highly capable for memory-intensive applications, its CPU-only architecture shows performance trade-offs in complex tasks, such as a weak prompt processing speed of 29.49 tokens per second on 7B LLM models. It is best suited for relational databases, in-memory caching, and enterprise applications requiring a high memory-to-vCPU ratio and fast local storage.

    Workload Profiles

    0.783Score
    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.
