    Server Description

    A high-density compute instance featuring dedicated Intel Xeon processors and fast local NVMe storage for I/O-intensive workloads.

    Compute OptimizedStorage & Database

    Amazon Web Services c5d.24xlarge is a compute-optimized instance featuring an Intel Xeon 8275CL processor with 96 vCPUs, 48 physical cores, and a 3.6 GHz clock speed. Running on the AWS Nitro hypervisor, it includes 192.0 GB of DDR4 memory and 3600 GB of local NVMe SSD storage, alongside a 25 Gbps baseline network speed. Benchmarks show strong multi-core capabilities, with a PassMark CPU score of 62263.66 and high memory bandwidth, alongside robust database performance of 81.12 million Redis SET operations per second. However, LLM text generation is a notable bottleneck, with a medium 7B model yielding only 5.33 tokens per second. Qualitatively, the instance offers high compute and storage density, making it highly efficient for I/O-heavy processing but less optimal for memory-intensive tasks. It is best suited for software compilation, database operations, ray tracing, and high-throughput web serving.

    Workload Profiles

    3.12Score
    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.
