    Server Description

    Memory-dense dual-core virtual machine with high single-thread clock speed, 16 GB RAM, and high-speed local NVMe SSD storage.

    Memory OptimizedStorage & DatabaseGeneral Purpose

    Microsoft Azure F2amds_v7 is a memory-optimized virtual machine featuring two dedicated physical cores powered by an AMD EPYC 9V45 processor clocked at 4.5 GHz. Built on x86_64 architecture, the instance provides 16.0 GB of system memory, delivering an 8.0 GB per core allocation, alongside a local 236 GB NVMe SSD for fast storage access. Single-core performance benchmarks place this server in the top tier, backed by robust results in single-threaded decompression, text processing, and single-core synthetic CPU scores. Conversely, parallel execution tasks such as software compilation and multi-threaded file extraction are limited by the two-core ceiling, yielding average to lower-tier multi-threaded benchmark results. Qualitative resource density remains strong for low-core memory-intensive applications. F2amds_v7 is well suited for running lightweight database servers, in-memory key-value stores like Redis, single-core analytical tasks, and microservices requiring high memory density relative to vCPU capacity.

    Workload Profiles

    0.31Score
    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.
