    Server Description

    High-density local NVMe storage combined with strong multi-core processing power to support demanding database, caching, and transactional workloads.

    Storage & DatabaseMemory OptimizedGeneral Purpose

    Microsoft Azure L64s_v3 is an LSv3-family server featuring 64 vCPUs and 32 physical cores powered by an Intel Xeon 8370C processor running at 2.8 GHz. It is equipped with 512.0 GB of RAM and 16,015 GB of local NVMe SSD storage. Operating on the Microsoft Hyper-V hypervisor, the instance delivers strong multi-core performance, ranking in the top 25% for stress-ng multi-core, Passmark CPU, and Geekbench multi-core benchmarks. It also shows strong capabilities in database operations, Redis SET operations, and large-block memory bandwidth. However, single-core performance remains average, and large-scale LLM text generation is a notable bottleneck, placing in the bottom 25% for 70B models. This hardware profile is optimized for high-throughput database systems, caching layers, and storage-intensive multi-threaded workloads.

    Workload Profiles

    3.1Score
    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.
