    CPU and System Topology

    Server Description

    An ARM-based virtual machine featuring high memory density and local storage for memory-intensive workloads and database operations.

    Memory OptimizedStorage & Database

    Microsoft Azure E4pds_v5 is an ARM-based virtual machine from the EPDSv5 family, featuring 4 dedicated physical cores on an Ampere ARMv8 Neoverse-N1 processor running at 3.0 GHz. It is configured with 32.0 GB of RAM, yielding a high 8.0 GB per core memory ratio, and includes 154 GB of local storage. Benchmark data reveals average performance in stress-ng CPU tests and large-block memory bandwidth, alongside average results in database operations and text processing. However, it displays weak performance in software compilation, memory latency, and cryptographic tasks, lacking AVX and AMX instruction sets. This memory-optimized profile makes the server suitable for memory-intensive workloads, database operations, and basic web serving where ARM architecture compatibility is met, offering a resource-dense configuration without the overhead of high-end compute features.

    Workload Profiles

    0.335Score
    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.
