      CPU and System Topology

      Server Description

      A high-capacity storage instance featuring dedicated Intel Xeon processors and over eleven terabytes of local HDD capacity for data-intensive workloads.

      Storage & DatabaseGeneral Purpose

      Alibaba Cloud ecs.d2c.6xlarge is a storage-focused virtual machine instance featuring 24 dedicated vCPUs, 88.0 GB of RAM, and a massive 11918 GB of local HDD storage. Powered by an Intel Xeon 8269CY processor running at 2.5 GHz, this x86_64 server delivers dedicated compute resources with a 12 Gbps baseline network bandwidth. Performance benchmarks indicate weak single-core execution and single-threaded compression speeds, but multi-core operations and memory bandwidth perform at average levels. This resource configuration provides a high-density storage profile with moderate compute capabilities. The ecs.d2c.6xlarge is best suited for workloads that demand substantial local storage capacity rather than high-speed IOPS, such as big data analytics, distributed file systems, data warehousing, and log archiving.

      Workload Profiles

      0.89Score
      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.Partial coverage: missing component benchmark(s): Redis RPS (pipeline=1, SET), Redis RPS (pipeline=16, SET), PassMark Memory Mark (composite), PassMark single-thread CPU.
