      CPU and System Topology

      Server Description

      A balanced x86_64 compute instance featuring dedicated Intel Xeon processors and 20 Gbps network bandwidth for general-purpose enterprise workloads.

      General Purpose

      Alibaba Cloud ecs.g7nex.4xlarge is a general-purpose instance featuring 16 dedicated vCPUs and 64.0 GB of RAM, powered by an Intel Xeon 8369B processor running at 2.7 GHz on the KVM hypervisor. Built on the x86_64 architecture, it includes advanced instruction sets like AVX-512 and AES. The instance lacks local storage and GPUs but provides a baseline network bandwidth of 20 Gbps. Benchmark results show average performance, with a PassMark CPU score of 21079.2, Redis SET operations at 15.47 million operations per second, and static web serving throughput of 20.58 GB/sec. This balanced resource profile makes it suitable for database operations, web serving, and general-purpose enterprise workloads.

      Workload Profiles

      1Score
      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.
