    Server Description

    An isolated x86_64 server featuring ninety-six vCPUs, substantial memory capacity, and local SSD storage for memory-intensive enterprise workloads.

    Memory OptimizedStorage & DatabaseGeneral Purpose

    Microsoft Azure E96ias_v4 is an isolated, memory-optimized server instance featuring 96 vCPUs and 48 physical cores powered by an AMD EPYC 7452 processor running at 3.35 GHz. It is configured with 672.0 GB of RAM, offering 7.0 GB per core, alongside a bundled 1376 GB local SSD. Operating under Microsoft Hyper-V, the instance demonstrates strong multi-threaded performance, ranking in the top 10% for PassMark CPU encryption and the top 25% for memory scores, software compilation, and Redis SET operations. However, single-core CPU performance is limited, placing in the bottom 10% in stress-ng tests. This hardware profile makes the server highly suitable for memory-intensive workloads, database operations, and multi-threaded enterprise applications, while representing a clear tradeoff for tasks requiring high single-threaded speed or advanced vector instructions.

    Workload Profiles

    2.6Score
    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.
