CPU and System Topology
Server Description
A memory-optimized virtual server combining high single-core AMD EPYC performance with a dense sixty-four gigabyte memory allocation.
Microsoft Azure E8-2as_v7 is a memory-optimized x86_64 server instance from the Easv7 family, powered by a dedicated AMD EPYC 9V45 processor operating at 4.5 GHz. Configured with 1 physical core and 2 vCPUs, it features a substantial 64.0 GB of RAM, offering a high memory-to-core ratio of 32.0 GB per core. While the instance lacks local storage and GPUs, it supports Premium Storage. Benchmark data highlights exceptional single-core performance, placing in the top 10% for single-threaded tasks like gzip compression and Geekbench single-core tests. However, multi-core performance and parallel processing capabilities are limited, ranking in the bottom 25%. This hardware profile is qualitatively cost-efficient for memory-heavy, single-threaded workloads, such as in-memory caching or lightweight databases, but is poorly suited for highly parallelized compute tasks.
