    CPU and System Topology

    Server Description

    A dedicated AMD EPYC instance combining forty-eight vCPUs with twelve terabytes of local storage for memory and storage-intensive workloads.

    Storage & DatabaseMemory Optimized

    Microsoft Azure L48as_v3 is an x86_64 virtual machine from the LASv3 family, powered by a dedicated AMD EPYC 7763 processor with 48 vCPUs and 24 physical cores running at 3.525 GHz. It features 384.0 GB of RAM and a substantial 12012 GB of local storage, with Premium Storage capability and no integrated GPUs. Performance benchmarks show strong multi-core and single-core CPU capabilities, ranking in the top 25% for stress-ng, Passmark CPU, and multi-threaded bzip3 decompression. Memory bandwidth, Redis operations, and LLM inference speeds perform in the average tier. Given its high local storage capacity and 8.0 GB of memory per core, this instance is suited for storage-intensive databases, large-scale data processing, and multi-threaded analytical workloads.

    Workload Profiles

    1.74Score
    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.
