Turns out there's enterprise parts with 3D V-Cache as well.[0][1]
768MB (!) of L3 cache. Looks like it's only Azure for the time being. Couldn't find those parts on AWS or GCP.
Although, AMD is using their own processors via GCP to.. design their own processors.[2] However, it doesn't seem like they're using 3D V-Cache parts there.
Exciting times in any case. There's a lot of workloads that stand to benefit from these new cache architectures.
