      CPU and System Topology

      Server Description

      A memory-optimized virtual machine featuring high-density RAM, strong single-threaded compression performance, and a massive L3 cache for enterprise workloads.

      Memory OptimizedGeneral Purpose

      Microsoft Azure E8s_v7 is a memory-optimized virtual machine from the Esv7 family, powered by an 8-vCPU Intel Xeon 6973P-C processor running at 4.2 GHz on the Microsoft Hyper-V hypervisor. Featuring 64.0 GB of RAM, it provides a high memory-to-core ratio of 8.0 GB per vCPU, backed by a large 480 MB L3 cache. While it lacks bundled local storage and GPUs, it is Premium Storage capable. Benchmark data reveals strong single-threaded performance, with gzip compression reaching 33.58 GB/sec and bzip3 decompression at 13.92 GB/sec. Other metrics, such as a multi-core stress-ng score of 8040.17 and 14.37 million Redis SET operations per second, sit in the average tier. This configuration is highly efficient for memory-intensive workloads, including relational databases, in-memory caching, and enterprise applications that require significant memory capacity without excessive CPU overhead.

      Workload Profiles

      0.9Score
      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.
