      CPU and System Topology

      Server Description

      A dedicated eight-core compute instance offering balanced multi-threaded performance and memory bandwidth for web serving and database workloads.

      Compute OptimizedGeneral Purpose

      Alibaba Cloud ecs.c6e.2xlarge is a compute-optimized virtual machine instance featuring 8 dedicated Intel Xeon 8269CY physical cores on an x86_64 architecture. Operating at 2.5 GHz, the instance is equipped with 16.0 GB of memory, providing a 2.0 GB per core ratio, and offers a baseline network bandwidth of 3 Gbps. It does not include local storage or GPU accelerators. Benchmark data shows average multi-core CPU performance, PassMark database operations, and memory bandwidth, though single-core performance falls into the lower tier. This instance is qualitatively cost-efficient for workloads requiring dedicated CPU resources without high memory demands. It is well-suited for multi-threaded applications, static web serving, and moderate database workloads.

      Workload Profiles

      0.452Score
      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.
