    CPU and System Topology

    Server Description

    A memory-optimized virtual machine featuring high RAM density and local SSD storage for demanding database and caching workloads.

    Microsoft Azure E32-16ds_v5 is a memory-optimized virtual machine from the EDSv5 family, powered by an Intel Xeon 8370C processor. It provides 16 dedicated vCPUs (8 physical cores) running at 2.8 GHz, 256 GB of RAM, and 1229 GB of local SSD storage. Operating on the Microsoft Hyper-V hypervisor, the x86_64 architecture supports AVX-512 and cryptography acceleration. Benchmarks show balanced capabilities, with a PassMark CPU score of 21361.52 and Redis SET performance of 15.94 million operations per second. The instance offers a high memory-to-vCPU ratio of 16 GB per vCPU, making it qualitatively cost-efficient for memory-bound applications. It is best suited for in-memory databases, caching layers, and data-intensive enterprise workloads.

    Workload Profiles

    1.1Score
    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.
