      CPU and System Topology

      Server Description

      An x86_64 virtual machine featuring a high memory-to-vCPU ratio and premium block storage capabilities for memory-intensive workloads.

      Memory OptimizedStorage & Database

      Microsoft Azure E8bs_v5 is an EBSv5-family virtual machine configured with 8 dedicated vCPUs and 64.0 GB of RAM, running on an Intel Xeon 8370C processor at 2.8 GHz. Utilizing the Microsoft Hyper-V hypervisor, this x86_64 architecture server provides a high memory-to-core ratio of 8.0 GB per vCPU. It lacks local storage and GPUs, instead supporting external Premium Storage. Performance benchmarks generally fall in the average range, with a Geekbench multi-core score of 6051.0 and a Redis SET throughput of 7.73 million operations per second. However, multi-threaded bzip3 decompression and 7B LLM inference show weaker performance. This memory-optimized profile is suited for database operations, in-memory caching, and general enterprise applications requiring high memory density without excessive compute overhead.

      Workload Profiles

      0.61Score
      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.
