CPU and System Topology

Server Description

A high-capacity memory-optimized instance featuring massive RAM density and local SSD storage for memory-intensive enterprise database workloads.

Memory OptimizedStorage & Database

Microsoft Azure M32ms is a memory-optimized virtual machine from the MS family, powered by an Intel Xeon 8280M processor with 32 dedicated vCPUs and 16 physical cores. It features an exceptionally high memory capacity of 875.0 GB (27.34 GB per core) and includes 1049 GB of local SSD storage. Running on the Microsoft Hyper-V hypervisor, the instance supports AVX-512F and AES instructions. Performance benchmarks reveal a distinct tradeoff: single-core CPU performance and single-threaded compression tasks fall in the bottom 10%, whereas multi-core operations, database tasks, and Redis SET operations (20.43 million operations/sec) maintain average performance within the middle 50% tier. This resource profile makes the M32ms highly suitable for memory-intensive enterprise workloads, large-scale caching, and database operations where memory capacity is prioritized over high single-threaded compute speeds.

0.96Score

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.
