    Server Description

    A high-density storage and memory-optimized platform featuring dedicated Intel Xeon processing and massive local storage for data-intensive enterprise workloads.

    Storage & DatabaseMemory OptimizedGeneral Purpose

    The Microsoft Azure L48s_v4 is a high-capacity storage and memory-optimized server instance within the Lsv4 family. Powered by a dedicated 4.2 GHz Intel Xeon 8573C processor, it delivers 48 vCPUs across 24 physical cores, supported by 384.0 GB of RAM and 11,519 GB of local storage. The architecture features a 260 MB L3 cache and supports advanced instruction sets like AVX-512 and Intel AMX. Benchmark data highlights strong performance, including a Passmark CPU score of 63,100.84, a Redis SET throughput of 67.33 million operations per second, and uncached memory read bandwidth of 223.94 GB/sec. Lacking a GPU, this instance is designed for high-throughput database operations, large-scale caching, and data-intensive enterprise workloads requiring massive local storage and high memory density.

    Workload Profiles

    3.3Score
    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.
