    CPU and System Topology

    Server Description

    A GPU-accelerated server combining dedicated Intel Xeon processors and NVIDIA Ampere architecture for high-throughput machine learning inference and parallel computing.

    GPU AcceleratedCompute OptimizedGeneral Purpose

    Alibaba Cloud ecs.gn7i-c56g1.14xlarge is a GPU-accelerated server instance designed for compute-intensive and machine learning workloads. It features 56 dedicated vCPUs from an Intel Xeon 8369B processor running at 2.9 GHz, paired with 346.0 GB of RAM and a single NVIDIA Ampere A10 GPU with 24 GB of VRAM. The instance operates on a KVM hypervisor and provides a baseline network bandwidth of 16 Gbps, though it lacks local storage. Benchmark results highlight top-tier performance in LLM inference, achieving 2464.01 tokens per second for prompt processing on a 7B model, alongside strong multi-threaded decompression and database operations. This hardware profile offers a cost-efficient balance of dedicated CPU power and GPU acceleration, making it highly suitable for deep learning inference, parallel computing, and database workloads.

    Workload Profiles

    2.3Score
    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.
