    Server Description

    A high-density memory instance featuring ninety-six dedicated vCPUs and AMD EPYC processing for demanding database and multi-threaded enterprise workloads.

    Memory OptimizedGeneral Purpose

    The Microsoft Azure E96as_v5 is an EASv5-family virtual machine featuring 96 dedicated vCPUs and 672.0 GB of RAM, running on an AMD EPYC 7763 processor at 3.525 GHz. Built on the x86_64 architecture with 48 physical cores, it utilizes the Microsoft Hyper-V hypervisor. The instance lacks local storage and bundled public IPv4 addresses, relying instead on external Premium Storage. Benchmark data highlights top-tier multi-core CPU performance, with a stress-ng multi-core score in the top 10 percent and strong Geekbench multi-core results. Conversely, single-core and text processing benchmarks remain in the average tier. This high memory-to-vCPU density makes the instance cost-efficient for memory-bound workloads. It is suited for large databases, in-memory analytics, and multi-threaded enterprise applications.

    Workload Profiles

    3.22Score
    Precomputed compound score for CI/CD Build 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% Geekbench Clang compilation (multi-core), 10% Geekbench Clang compilation (single-core), 20% stress-ng div16 best-N cores, 5% PassMark integer math, 5% PassMark compression, 5% Brotli compression (multi-core, level 0), 5% PassMark string sorting. Rationale for component selection: Build performance is mainly driven by multi-core compilation throughput, but also bundles single-core compilation speed and general CPU performance, multi-core compression and text/scripting processing.Partial coverage: missing component benchmark(s): PassMark integer math, PassMark compression, Brotli compression (multi-core, level 0), PassMark string sorting.
