    Server Description

    A memory-optimized virtual machine featuring high RAM density, local storage, and balanced performance for database and caching workloads.

    Memory OptimizedStorage & Database

    Microsoft Azure E64-16ds_v4 is a memory-optimized virtual machine from the EDSv4 family, featuring 16 dedicated vCPUs across 8 physical Intel Xeon 8272CL cores at 2.6 GHz. It is equipped with 504.0 GB of RAM, offering a high memory-to-core ratio of 31.5 GB, alongside 2458 GB of local storage. Benchmark data indicates average performance across most categories, with a PassMark database score of 7126.2 and 14.55 million Redis SET operations per second. However, LLM inference on medium 7B models shows a performance tradeoff, with prompt processing falling into the weak tier at 29.58 tokens/sec. This instance provides qualitative cost efficiency for memory-heavy workloads that do not require high compute scaling, making it suitable for large databases, in-memory caching, and data analytics.

    Workload Profiles

    0.838Score
    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.
