    Server Description

    A memory-optimized virtual server featuring high RAM-to-CPU density and strong memory bandwidth for demanding in-memory database workloads.

    Memory Optimized

    The Microsoft Azure E96-24s_v6 is a memory-optimized server from the Esv6 family, featuring 24 dedicated vCPUs and 768.0 GB of RAM. Powered by an Intel Xeon 8573C processor running at 4.2 GHz, this x86_64 virtual machine delivers 32.0 GB of memory per core. While it lacks local storage and GPUs, it is Premium Storage capable and runs on Microsoft Hyper-V. Benchmarks reveal strong memory bandwidth, with large-block read speeds of 187.67 GB/sec and write speeds of 116.85 GB/sec. Single-core performance is also robust, highlighted by a Geekbench single-core score of 2142.0. Conversely, multi-core and database operations, such as Redis SET operations at 35.07 million operations per second, align with average tiers. This configuration is highly efficient for memory-bound workloads, making it an appropriate fit for in-memory databases, large caching layers, and data analytics.

    Workload Profiles

    2.1Score
    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.
