    CPU and System Topology

    Server Description

    A memory-optimized virtual machine featuring high-capacity RAM and local SSD storage for demanding database and enterprise applications.

    Memory OptimizedStorage & Database

    Microsoft Azure E96-24ds_v5 is a memory-optimized virtual machine powered by a dedicated 2.8 GHz Intel Xeon 8370C processor. It features 24 vCPUs, 12 physical cores, and an exceptionally large memory capacity of 672.0 GB, providing 28.0 GB of RAM per core. The instance includes 3686 GB of local SSD storage and supports Premium Storage, though it lacks GPU acceleration. Benchmark data indicates strong memory performance, with large-block write bandwidth and Passmark memory scores ranking in the top 25%, while general compute and decompression tasks perform in the average range. This hardware profile is qualitatively cost-efficient for memory-intensive applications, making it highly suitable for large-scale databases, in-memory analytics, and enterprise workloads requiring substantial RAM and fast local storage.

    Workload Profiles

    1.5Score
    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.
