    CPU and System Topology

    Server Description

    A memory-optimized virtual machine featuring dedicated Intel processors, high-density RAM, and fast local SSD storage for demanding database workloads.

    Memory OptimizedStorage & Database

    Microsoft Azure E20d_v4 is a memory-optimized virtual machine from the EDv4 family, powered by an Intel Xeon 8272CL processor running on the Microsoft Hyper-V hypervisor. It features 20 dedicated vCPUs (10 physical cores) at 2.6 GHz, 160.0 GB of RAM, and 768 GB of local SSD storage. The server lacks GPU accelerators and complimentary public IPv4 addresses. Performance benchmarks place the E20d_v4 in the average tier for most compute tasks, with a PassMark CPU score of 19,245.76, while its memory subsystem performs in the top 25% with a PassMark memory score of 2,791.74. This high memory-to-vCPU density of 8.0 GB per core makes it qualitatively cost-efficient for memory-heavy applications without requiring external storage overhead. The E20d_v4 is highly suited for database hosting, caching layers, and memory-intensive enterprise workloads.

    Workload Profiles

    0.94Score
    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.
