    CPU and System Topology

    Server Description

    A memory-dense virtual machine featuring high RAM-to-core allocation and local SSD storage for memory-bound, low-compute workloads.

    Memory OptimizedStorage & Database

    Microsoft Azure E8-2ads_v5 is a memory-optimized virtual machine powered by an AMD EPYC 7763 processor with 2 dedicated vCPUs and 1 physical core operating at 3.525 GHz. It features a high memory capacity of 64.0 GB (32.0 GB per core) and includes 307 GB of local SSD storage. While single-core CPU performance is strong, ranking in the top 25% in stress-ng benchmarks, the low core count limits multi-core performance, database operations, and memory bandwidth, which score in the lower percentiles. This configuration is qualitatively cost-efficient for memory-dense workloads that do not require extensive parallel processing. It is best suited for memory-intensive, low-compute applications such as caching layers, memory-bound single-threaded processing, and lightweight database tasks.

    Workload Profiles

    0.17Score
    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.
