    Server Description

    An ultra-high-capacity memory-optimized platform featuring over eleven terabytes of RAM and high multi-threaded processing power for enterprise databases.

    Memory OptimizedStorage & Database

    Microsoft Azure M416-208ms_v2 is an x86_64 memory-optimized server in the MSv2 family, running on Microsoft Hyper-V. It is equipped with 104 physical Intel Xeon 8280L cores (208 vCPUs) running at 2.7 GHz, paired with an expansive 11,400.0 GB of RAM and 8,389 GB of local storage. The server exhibits a distinct performance profile: while single-core benchmarks are relatively weak, its parallel processing capabilities are top-tier. Multi-core stress-ng, Passmark CPU, and memory bandwidth benchmarks all rank in the top 10%, with Redis SET operations reaching 159.37 million operations per second and static web serving throughput at 84.24 GB/sec. This high-density resource configuration is highly efficient for consolidating massive databases, in-memory caching layers, and heavy multi-threaded enterprise workloads that demand extreme memory capacity.

    Workload Profiles

    5.59Score
    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.
