    Server Description

    A high-capacity storage and memory virtual machine featuring eighty vCPUs and over twenty terabytes of local storage for parallelized database workloads.

    Storage & DatabaseMemory Optimized

    Microsoft Azure L80s_v2 is an LSv2-series virtual machine designed for storage-intensive and memory-heavy workloads. Powered by an AMD EPYC 7551 processor with 80 vCPUs and 40 physical cores running at 3.2 GHz, this x86_64 instance features 640.0 GB of RAM and 20019 GB of bundled local storage. While single-core CPU performance is relatively weak, ranking in the bottom tier of benchmarks, the instance demonstrates strong multi-threaded performance, particularly in encryption and decompression tasks. Memory bandwidth and database operations perform consistently in the average tier. This resource profile offers high storage and memory density, making the L80s_v2 highly suitable for large-scale databases, parallelized data processing, and big data analytics workloads that require substantial local storage capacity without needing top-tier single-threaded compute speeds.

    Workload Profiles

    1.7Score
    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.
