    CPU and System Topology

    Server Description

    A high-frequency AMD EPYC server pairing dedicated 48-core compute with massive local NVMe storage for intensive database and processing workloads.

    General PurposeStorage & Database

    Microsoft Azure F48ads_v7 is an x86_64 server instance from the Fadsv7 family, featuring 48 dedicated AMD EPYC 9V45 vCPUs running at 4.5 GHz, 192.0 GB of RAM, and a bundled 5669 GB NVMe SSD. Operating on Microsoft Hyper-V, this instance delivers top-tier CPU and memory performance, ranking in the top 10% for multi-core stress-ng, Geekbench, and Passmark benchmarks. It shows strong data-processing capabilities, particularly in database operations and Redis SET performance. However, the lack of GPU acceleration limits its efficiency for large-scale AI workloads, where 70B LLM inference drops to average tiers. Qualitatively, the server provides high resource density by pairing high-frequency compute with massive local storage, making it highly effective for database hosting, software compilation, and high-throughput web serving.

    Workload Profiles

    3.1Score
    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.
