CPU and System Topology

Server Description

A memory-optimized platform combining high-capacity system memory with fast local SSD storage for demanding multi-threaded enterprise workloads.

Memory OptimizedStorage & Database

Microsoft Azure E96ds_v5 is a memory-optimized server from the EDSv5 family, featuring 96 dedicated vCPUs powered by Intel Xeon 8370C processors running at 2.8 GHz. It is equipped with 672.0 GB of RAM and 3686 GB of local SSD storage. Operating on the Microsoft Hyper-V hypervisor, this x86_64 platform delivers strong multi-core performance, as evidenced by its top 25% rankings in stress-ng multi-core tests, Geekbench multi-core scores, and memory bandwidth benchmarks. The server also achieves top-tier performance in Passmark CPU encryption. While single-core performance remains average, the high memory-to-vCPU ratio and fast local storage make it highly efficient for memory-intensive workloads. It is suited for large databases, Redis deployments, and multi-threaded enterprise applications.

Workload Profiles

4.1Score

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.
