    CPU and System Topology

    Server Description

    A high-frequency, memory-intensive server featuring dedicated Intel Xeon processors and massive RAM capacity for demanding database and analytical workloads.

    Memory OptimizedStorage & DatabaseCompute Optimized

    Microsoft Azure FX64mds_v2 is a memory-optimized server featuring 64 vCPUs powered by a 4.2 GHz Intel Xeon 8573C processor. It is equipped with 1344.0 GB of RAM, providing 21.0 GB per core, and includes 3780 GB of local storage. Operating on the Microsoft Hyper-V hypervisor, the instance delivers top-tier performance in database operations, large-block memory bandwidth, and static web serving. While single-core performance is average, multi-core capabilities are strong, supported by AVX-512 and Intel AMX instructions. This server is designed for memory-intensive workloads, including large-scale databases, in-memory caching, and data analytics.

    Workload Profiles

    4.41Score
    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.
