    CPU and System Topology

    Server Description

    A memory-optimized virtual machine featuring high-frequency dedicated AMD EPYC cores and integrated high-capacity local NVMe SSD storage.

    Memory OptimizedStorage & Database

    Microsoft Azure F16amds_v7 is a memory-optimized virtual machine featuring 16 dedicated AMD EPYC 9V45 vCPUs running at 4.5 GHz on the x86_64 architecture. It is equipped with 128.0 GB of RAM, providing a high 8.0 GB per core ratio, alongside a bundled 1890 GB NVMe SSD for high-speed local storage. Benchmark data highlights top-tier single-core CPU performance and single-threaded decompression speeds, while multi-core operations and memory bandwidth remain in the average tier. The instance also exhibits strong performance in lightweight LLM inference and data compression. Given its high memory density, dedicated compute cores, and fast local storage, the F16amds_v7 is well-suited for memory-intensive databases, caching systems, and data processing workloads.

    Workload Profiles

    1.3Score
    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.
