      CPU and System Topology

      Server Description

      An AMD-powered virtual machine featuring high memory density, dedicated single-thread performance, and advanced cryptographic acceleration for memory-intensive workloads.

      Memory OptimizedGeneral Purpose

      Microsoft Azure F8ams_v7 is an x86_64 virtual machine from the memory-intensive Famsv7 family, running on the Microsoft Hyper-V hypervisor. It is powered by an 8-core AMD EPYC 9V45 processor running at 4.5 GHz with 32 MB of L3 cache. The instance features 64.0 GB of system memory, providing a high 8.0 GB per vCPU ratio, but includes no bundled local storage. Benchmarks indicate top-tier single-core CPU performance and single-threaded compression speeds, contrasted with average multi-core and memory bandwidth results. The processor supports AVX-512, AVX_VNNI, and cryptographic acceleration. This instance is suited for memory-bound workloads, database operations, and small-scale language model inference.

      Workload Profiles

      0.79Score
      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.
