      Server Description

      An AMD-powered memory-optimized instance featuring a high memory-to-core ratio and strong single-core performance for memory-intensive workloads.

      Memory OptimizedGeneral Purpose

      The Microsoft Azure E8as_v6 is an x86_64 memory-optimized virtual machine from the Eav6 family, powered by an AMD EPYC 9V74 processor running at 3.7 GHz. It features 8 dedicated vCPUs (4 physical cores with multithreading) and 64.0 GB of RAM, establishing a high 1:8 vCPU-to-memory ratio. The instance does not include local storage or integrated GPUs but is Premium Storage capable. Benchmarks indicate strong single-core CPU and text processing performance, while multi-core execution and database operations remain average. A notable performance tradeoff is its weak uncached large-block memory read bandwidth of 38.21 GB/sec and slow 7B LLM prompt processing. This configuration is qualitatively cost-efficient for memory-heavy workloads that do not require massive parallel compute, making it well-suited for relational databases, Redis caching, and memory-intensive enterprise applications.

      Workload Profiles

      0.57Score
      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.
