    CPU and System Topology

    Server Description

    A memory-dense server featuring dedicated Intel Xeon processing, massive RAM capacity, and high-speed local NVMe SSD storage for memory-bound workloads.

    Memory OptimizedStorage & Database

    Microsoft Azure E32-8ds_v6 is an x86_64 memory-optimized server from the Edsv6 family, virtualized via Microsoft Hyper-V. It is equipped with an Intel Xeon 8573C processor running at 4.2 GHz, featuring 4 physical cores and 8 dedicated vCPUs. The server is characterized by a high memory density of 256.0 GB RAM (32.0 GB per core) and includes 1890 GB of local NVMe SSD storage. Performance benchmarks show strong single-core capabilities, with a Geekbench single-core score of 2051.0 and strong text processing performance. However, memory performance is mixed, with a weak Passmark memory score despite solid large-block read bandwidth of 66.17 GB/sec. This configuration is highly cost-efficient for memory-bound workloads that do not require massive parallel compute. It is best suited for databases, caching systems, text processing, and small-scale language model inference.

    Workload Profiles

    0.79Score
    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.
