    CPU and System Topology

    Server Description

    A massive memory-optimized virtual machine delivering top-tier multi-threaded performance and high-density memory bandwidth for enterprise-scale database workloads.

    Memory OptimizedStorage & DatabaseCompute Optimized

    Microsoft Azure M416s_v2 is a memory-optimized virtual machine from the MSv2 family, featuring 416 vCPUs across 208 physical Intel Xeon 8280L cores and 5700.0 GB of RAM. Running on Microsoft Hyper-V, it includes 8389 GB of local storage and supports Premium Storage. While single-core benchmarks are relatively weak, its multi-core and memory capabilities are top-tier, with stress-ng multi-core performance and Redis SET operations ranking in the top 10%. Memory read bandwidth reaches up to 19406.65 GB/sec for cached blocks. This server is designed for massive in-memory databases, large-scale enterprise applications, and high-throughput parallel processing workloads, offering a high-density resource profile for consolidation.

    Workload Profiles

    7.68Score
    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.
