      Server Description

      A dedicated forty-eight core AMD EPYC processor instance delivering top-tier multi-threaded performance and balanced memory for compute-dense workloads.

      General PurposeCompute Optimized

      The Microsoft Azure F48as_v6 is an x86_64 server instance from the Fasv6 family, featuring a dedicated 48-core AMD EPYC 9V74 processor running at 3.7 GHz and 192.0 GB of RAM. Lacking bundled local storage and GPU accelerators, it relies on external Premium Storage. Benchmarks show top-tier multi-core capabilities, with stress-ng multi-core and Geekbench multi-core scores in the top 10%, alongside strong memory bandwidth of 230.45 GB/sec for large block reads. It excels in multi-threaded tasks, software compilation, and image processing, though single-threaded compression and large-model LLM inference perform at average levels. This server is highly efficient for compute-dense workloads, database operations, and web serving that require robust parallel processing without local storage dependencies. It supports advanced instruction sets like AVX-512 and VAES to accelerate cryptographic and vector calculations.

      Workload Profiles

      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.
