      CPU and System Topology

      Server Description

      Memory-optimized virtual machine delivering 672 GB of RAM across 24 vCPUs with high write bandwidth for memory-bound enterprise database workloads.

      Memory OptimizedStorage & Database

      Microsoft Azure E96-24s_v5 is a memory-optimized virtual machine in the ESv5 series powered by a 2.8 GHz Intel Xeon 8370C processor. Built on x86_64 architecture with Hyper-V hypervisor, it features 24 dedicated vCPUs across 12 physical cores and 105 MB of L3 cache. The instance offers 672.0 GB of RAM, delivering 28.0 GB of memory per vCPU. It includes no bundled local SSD storage or discrete GPUs. Benchmark results highlight strong memory performance, including top-quartile large-block memory write bandwidth of 106.74 GB/sec and a PassMark memory score of 2894.78, alongside solid CPU execution metrics across multi-threaded tests. By decoupling high memory capacity from vCPU count, it optimizes licensing costs for memory-bound applications. The E96-24s_v5 is well suited for enterprise database management, large-scale caching services, and memory-heavy analytics workloads requiring substantial RAM per core.

      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.
