    Server Description

    A high-frequency x86_64 server featuring 512 GB of RAM and 64 vCPUs optimized for memory-intensive database and enterprise workloads.

    Memory OptimizedStorage & DatabaseCompute Optimized

    Microsoft Azure M64bds_v3 is an x86_64 server featuring a dedicated Intel Xeon 8473C processor with 64 vCPUs, 32 physical cores, and a 4.0 GHz clock speed. It is configured with 512 GB of RAM, establishing an 8.0 GB per core memory ratio, and includes 410 GB of local storage. Benchmark data places this server in the top 10% for single-core processing, image processing, and text processing, with top 25% performance in memory bandwidth, database operations, and multi-core execution. Lacking a GPU, it relies on its high-frequency Intel Xeon cores and large memory capacity to deliver efficient throughput for memory-bound applications. The server is optimized for workloads such as large-scale database management, in-memory caching, and complex data processing tasks.

    Workload Profiles

    3.4Score
    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.
