    Server Description

    A memory-intensive virtual machine combining top-tier single-core AMD EPYC performance with high-capacity local NVMe SSD storage.

    Memory OptimizedStorage & Database

    Microsoft Azure F4-2amds_v7 is a memory-intensive virtual machine from the Famdsv7 family, featuring an AMD EPYC 9V45 processor with 2 dedicated vCPUs running at 4.5 GHz. It is equipped with 32.0 GB of RAM, providing a high 16.0 GB per core ratio, alongside 472 GB of local NVMe SSD storage. Benchmarks show top-tier single-core CPU and text processing performance, while multi-core and memory bandwidth metrics remain average. Due to its low core count but high memory capacity, this instance is highly cost-efficient for memory-bound, single-threaded workloads, moderate database operations, and text processing, though it is less suited for highly parallelized tasks.

    Performance

    Workload Profiles

    0.33Score
    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.
