    Server Description

    A high-density memory-optimized instance featuring dedicated high-frequency Intel Xeon processing and substantial local storage for memory-intensive enterprise workloads.

    Memory OptimizedStorage & Database

    Microsoft Azure FX64-32mds_v2 is a memory-optimized server instance powered by a dedicated 4.2 GHz Intel Xeon 8573C processor with 16 physical cores and 32 vCPUs. It features an exceptionally high memory capacity of 1344.0 GB (42.0 GB per core) and 3780 GB of local storage. Operating on the Microsoft Hyper-V hypervisor, this instance delivers top-tier single-core performance, ranking in the top 10% in Geekbench single-core and text processing benchmarks, alongside strong uncached memory bandwidth. While multi-core and cryptographic performance are strong, the lack of a GPU results in weak text generation speeds for large language models. This instance is designed for memory-intensive workloads, including large-scale in-memory databases, data caching, and enterprise applications requiring high memory density per vCPU.

    Workload Profiles

    2.96Score
    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.
