    CPU and System Topology

    Server Description

    An Intel-powered, memory-optimized virtual machine with high memory density and local storage for demanding database and caching workloads.

    Memory OptimizedStorage & DatabaseGeneral Purpose

    Microsoft Azure E32ds_v5 is a memory-optimized virtual machine from the EDSv5 family, featuring 32 dedicated vCPUs and 16 physical cores powered by an Intel Xeon 8370C x86_64 processor running at 2.8 GHz. It is configured with 256.0 GB of RAM, providing a high 8.0 GB per core memory density, alongside a 1229 GB local disk with Premium Storage capabilities. Under benchmark testing, the server delivers solid mid-range performance, achieving 31.13 million operations per second in Redis SET tests and 15337.83 in PassMark database operations. While it shows strong text generation speeds for small 135M LLM models, performance drops significantly on larger 70B models, highlighting a tradeoff in heavy AI workloads. This server is highly cost-efficient for memory-intensive applications, making it an appropriate fit for database hosting, caching layers, software compilation, and enterprise web serving.

    Workload Profiles

    1.79Score
    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.
