      CPU and System Topology

      Server Description

      A balanced general-purpose instance featuring dedicated Intel Xeon processors and a stable resource profile for standard enterprise workloads.

      General Purpose

      Alibaba Cloud ecs.g6.2xlarge is a general-purpose instance featuring 8 dedicated vCPUs and 32.0 GB of RAM, running on an Intel Xeon 8269CY processor at 2.5 GHz. Built on the KVM hypervisor with an x86_64 architecture, it provides a balanced 1:4 vCPU-to-RAM ratio but lacks local storage and GPU resources. Performance benchmarks place this instance in the average tier for multi-core processing, memory bandwidth, and database operations, though single-core performance is relatively weak. It delivers a baseline network bandwidth of 2 Gbps. This hardware profile is suitable for general-purpose enterprise workloads, static web serving, and database operations that require dedicated CPU resources without the need for high-speed local NVMe storage.

      Workload Profiles

      0.441Score
      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.
