    CPU and System Topology

    Server Description

    An accelerated computing instance featuring dedicated Intel Xeon processors and an NVIDIA Ampere GPU for high-throughput AI inference and graphics rendering.

    GPU AcceleratedCompute OptimizedGeneral Purpose

    Alibaba Cloud ecs.gn7i-c32g1.8xlarge is an x86_64 GPU-accelerated server instance designed for compute-intensive and machine learning workloads. It is configured with 32 dedicated vCPUs from an Intel Xeon 8369B processor running at 2.9 GHz, 188.0 GB of system memory, and a single NVIDIA Ampere A10 GPU with 24 GB of VRAM. The instance does not feature local storage but provides a baseline network bandwidth of 16 Gbps. In performance testing, it excels in LLM inference, achieving top-tier speeds of 2489.49 tokens per second for prompt processing on a medium 7B model. General compute benchmarks are robust, with a PassMark CPU score of 36547.02. This hardware profile is highly suited for AI inference, graphics rendering, and data processing workloads that benefit from dedicated GPU acceleration without requiring local NVMe storage.

    Workload Profiles

    1.8Score
    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.
