      CPU and System Topology

      Server Description

      A high-capacity storage instance featuring massive local HDD space and balanced memory for data archiving and sequential processing workloads.

      Storage & DatabaseGeneral Purpose

      Alibaba Cloud ecs.d1.2xlarge is a storage-oriented virtual machine instance designed for high-capacity data requirements. Running on the KVM hypervisor, it is equipped with an Intel Xeon E5-2682v4 processor offering 8 dedicated vCPUs, 4 physical cores, and a 2.5 GHz clock speed. The system includes 32.0 GB of RAM and a massive 23,622 GB of local HDD storage, alongside a baseline network bandwidth of 3 Gbps. Benchmark results indicate modest compute capabilities, with single-core and multi-core performance generally ranking in the bottom 25%, though large-block memory write speeds and Passmark CPU scores reach average levels. Given its legacy HDD storage and lower compute performance, this instance is best suited for workloads prioritizing high storage capacity over rapid processing, such as data archiving, log analysis, and distributed file systems.

      Workload Profiles

      0.32Score
      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.
