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.
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.
