      CPU and System Topology

      Server Description

      A dedicated storage instance featuring massive local HDD capacity and balanced memory for large-scale data archiving and sequential processing.

      Storage & DatabaseGeneral Purpose

      Alibaba Cloud ecs.d1.2xlarge is a storage-focused virtual machine instance utilizing the KVM hypervisor. It is equipped with 8 dedicated physical cores on an Intel Xeon E5-2682v4 processor operating at 2.5 GHz, alongside 32.0 GB of RAM. The standout feature of this instance is its massive 23,622 GB of local HDD storage, paired with a 3 Gbps baseline network bandwidth. Benchmark data indicates modest processing capabilities, with single-core and multi-core CPU performance generally ranking in the bottom 25 percent, though PassMark CPU scores reach average levels. Given its high storage-to-compute ratio and reliance on HDD media, this instance provides a cost-effective solution for dense data retention. It is highly suited for workloads such as cold data archiving, log storage, and sequential data processing where massive capacity is required but high IOPS is not critical.

      Workload Profiles

      0.326Score
      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.
