    CPU and System Topology

    Server Description

    A memory-optimized virtual machine featuring a high RAM-to-vCPU ratio and local SSD storage for lightweight, memory-bound workloads.

    Memory OptimizedGeneral Purpose

    Microsoft Azure E2bds_v5 is an x86_64 memory-optimized virtual machine powered by an Intel Xeon 8370C processor running at 2.8 GHz. It features 2 dedicated vCPUs, 16.0 GB of RAM, and 77 GB of local SSD storage. While single-core benchmarks show average performance, multi-core capabilities and memory bandwidth are relatively constrained due to the single physical core architecture. The server is qualitatively cost-efficient for memory-intensive, low-compute workloads, offering a high memory-to-vCPU ratio. It is best suited for small-scale databases, caching layers, and lightweight web serving, but is not recommended for highly parallelized or compute-heavy tasks.

    Workload Profiles

    0.21Score
    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.
