CPU and System Topology

Server Description

A dedicated AMD EPYC platform featuring NVIDIA Hopper H100 acceleration and high-capacity local storage for intensive compute workloads.

GPU AcceleratedCompute OptimizedStorage & Database

The Microsoft Azure NC40ads_H100_v5 is a GPU-accelerated server instance featuring 40 dedicated AMD EPYC 9V84 physical cores running at 3.7 GHz. It is equipped with 320.0 GB of system memory, a single NVIDIA Hopper H100 GPU with 94 GB of VRAM, and 3971 GB of local storage. Benchmark results place its single-core CPU performance, multi-core Geekbench score, and image processing capabilities in the top 10%. Memory write bandwidth and database operations rank in the top 25%, while large-block read bandwidth and static web serving throughput remain average. For language model workloads, it delivers 33.22 tokens per second on medium 7B models. This instance is configured for workloads requiring dedicated compute resources, high-speed local storage, and GPU acceleration, such as medium-scale LLM inference, image processing, and database operations.

Workload Profiles

2.66Score
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.
