    CPU and System Topology

    Server Description

    A high-frequency dedicated AMD processor server with fast local storage, optimized for single-threaded performance and compute-intensive workloads.

    Compute OptimizedGeneral PurposeStorage & Database

    Microsoft Azure F8ads_v7 is an x86_64 compute-optimized server featuring 8 dedicated AMD EPYC 9V45 physical cores running at 4.5 GHz. It is equipped with 32.0 GB of RAM and 945 GB of local storage with Premium Storage capability. Benchmark results show top-tier single-core performance, particularly in single-threaded stress-ng tests, gzip compression, and small-model LLM text generation. Multi-core performance, memory bandwidth, and database operations perform in the average tier. Lacking a GPU, this server is designed for workloads requiring high clock speeds and fast local storage, such as web serving, single-threaded data processing, and database operations.

    Workload Profiles

    0.745Score
    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.
