CPU and System Topology
Server Description
A memory-dense virtual machine featuring dedicated Intel Xeon processing and fast local NVMe storage for memory-bound workloads.
Microsoft Azure E4ds_v7 is a memory-optimized virtual machine powered by an Intel Xeon 6973P-C processor running at 4.2 GHz on the Microsoft Hyper-V hypervisor. It features 4 dedicated vCPUs across 2 physical cores, 32.0 GB of RAM, and a 236 GB local NVMe SSD. The x86_64 architecture includes a large 480 MB L3 cache and advanced instruction sets such as AVX-512 and AMX. Benchmarks indicate strong single-threaded performance in gzip compression and bzip3 decompression, alongside average web serving and Redis throughput, though multi-core scaling and memory write bandwidth are relatively weak. This configuration provides a cost-effective balance of high memory density and local solid-state storage for workloads that do not demand extensive parallel compute. It is best suited for memory-intensive applications, caching layers, and relational database workloads.
