      Server Description

      An x86 virtual machine offering high memory density with four dedicated vCPUs for memory-intensive, low-compute enterprise workloads.

      Memory OptimizedGeneral Purpose

      Microsoft Azure E8-4s_v5 is a memory-optimized virtual machine from the ESv5 family, featuring 4 dedicated vCPUs and 64.0 GB of RAM. Powered by an Intel Xeon 8370C processor at 2.8 GHz with an x86_64 architecture, this Hyper-V-based instance provides 2 physical cores and 48 MB of L3 cache. It lacks local storage and GPUs but supports Premium Storage. Benchmarks show average single-core performance, such as a Geekbench single-core score of 1610.0, but weaker multi-core and memory bandwidth results, including a multi-core Geekbench score of 3462.0 and 28.43 GB/sec large-block read bandwidth. This configuration delivers high memory density relative to compute resources, making it qualitatively cost-effective for memory-heavy, low-compute tasks. It is best suited for memory-intensive workloads, small databases, and caching applications.

      Workload Profiles

      0.36Score
      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.
