    CPU and System Topology

    Server Description

    A dual-core virtual machine featuring high memory density and local SSD storage for memory-bound, low-compute workloads.

    Memory OptimizedGeneral Purpose

    Microsoft Azure E2ds_v4 is an EDSv4-family virtual machine featuring 2 vCPUs and 16.0 GB of RAM, providing a high memory-to-vCPU ratio of 8.0 GB per core. Powered by an Intel Xeon 8272CL x86_64 processor running at 2.6 GHz, this instance includes a 77 GB local SSD and supports Premium Storage. Benchmark results show modest compute capabilities, with a single-core Geekbench score of 1212.0 and a multi-core score of 1477.0. Memory bandwidth is measured at 11.88 GB/sec for large-block reads, and Redis SET operations reach 1.76 million operations per second. Given its high memory density relative to its dual-core compute capacity, the E2ds_v4 is qualitatively cost-efficient for memory-intensive workloads that do not demand high parallel processing power. It is well-suited for small databases, caching layers, and lightweight web serving.

    Workload Profiles

    0.15Score
    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.
