    CPU and System Topology

    Server Description

    A high-frequency, memory-intensive virtual machine featuring dedicated AMD EPYC cores and integrated local NVMe SSD storage for demanding database workloads.

    Memory OptimizedStorage & Database

    Microsoft Azure F8-4amds_v7 is a memory-intensive virtual machine from the Famdsv7 family, running on the Microsoft Hyper-V hypervisor. It features 4 dedicated vCPUs and 4 physical cores powered by an AMD EPYC 9V45 processor clocked at 4.5 GHz, paired with 64.0 GB of RAM and a bundled 945 GB NVMe SSD. The server exhibits top-tier single-core CPU performance and single-threaded compression speeds, though its multi-core and memory bandwidth benchmarks align with average tiers. With a high memory-to-vCPU ratio of 16.0 GB per core, this instance offers strong qualitative cost efficiency for memory-bound workloads that benefit from fast single-threaded execution. It is highly suitable for database operations, Redis caching, and memory-intensive applications.

    Workload Profiles

    0.46Score
    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.
