    Server Description

    A memory-optimized virtual machine featuring dedicated AMD EPYC processors, high RAM density, and local SSD storage for database workloads.

    Memory OptimizedStorage & DatabaseGeneral Purpose

    Microsoft Azure E8ads_v5 is an x86_64 memory-optimized virtual machine featuring 8 dedicated vCPUs and 64.0 GB of RAM, powered by an AMD EPYC 7763 processor running at 3.525 GHz. It includes 307 GB of local SSD storage and is Premium Storage capable. Benchmarks show strong single-core CPU performance, though uncached large-block memory bandwidth is relatively weak. Multi-core processing, database operations, and web serving throughput perform in the average tier. With an 8:1 RAM-to-vCPU ratio and dedicated CPU allocation, this instance provides a balanced, cost-efficient profile for memory-intensive workloads. It is well-suited for database hosting, in-memory caching, and enterprise applications requiring substantial memory without the need for dedicated GPU accelerators.

    Workload Profiles

    0.45Score
    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.
