CPU and System Topology
Server Description
An ARM64 virtual machine featuring a high memory-to-core ratio for lightweight, memory-focused workloads without intensive multi-core processing needs.
The Microsoft Azure E2ps_v5 is an ARM64 virtual machine from the EPSv5 family, powered by a 3.0 GHz Ampere ARMv8 Neoverse-N1 processor. Running on the Microsoft Hyper-V hypervisor, it provides 2 dedicated physical cores and 2 vCPUs, paired with 16.0 GB of system memory. The server lacks local storage and GPUs but supports Premium Storage. Performance benchmarks show a clear division: single-core CPU performance and single-threaded gzip compression reach average levels, whereas multi-core execution, memory bandwidth, and database operations fall into the weak to poor categories. With a high memory-to-vCPU ratio of 8.0 GB per core, the E2ps_v5 offers a qualitatively cost-efficient profile for memory-optimized workloads that are not CPU-intensive. It is best suited for lightweight caching, basic text processing, and small-scale development tasks.
