      CPU and System Topology

      Server Description

      A dedicated x86 server featuring high-capacity local SSD storage and balanced multi-core performance for data-intensive workloads.

      Storage & DatabaseGeneral Purpose

      Alibaba Cloud ecs.i2gne.8xlarge is an x86_64 server featuring 32 dedicated vCPUs from 16 physical Intel Xeon 8163 cores running at 2.5 GHz, paired with 128.0 GB of RAM and a bundled 3839 GB local SSD. Operating on a KVM hypervisor, it delivers a 10 Gbps baseline network bandwidth. Benchmark data shows weak single-core CPU performance, but multi-core execution, memory bandwidth, and database operations consistently reach average tiers. The high-capacity local SSD storage provides strong qualitative value for data-dense environments. This instance is well-suited for storage-heavy applications, database hosting, and multi-threaded processing tasks that require dedicated CPU resources and large local storage capacity.

      Workload Profiles

      0.96Score
      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.
