    Server Description

    A compact compute-optimized instance featuring dedicated Intel Xeon processing and low-latency local NVMe SSD storage for lightweight workloads.

    Compute OptimizedStorage & Database

    Amazon Web Services c5d.large is an x86_64 compute-optimized instance featuring an Intel Xeon 8124M processor running at 3.4 GHz. It provides 2 dedicated vCPUs from a single physical core, 4.0 GB of DDR4 memory, and 50 GB of local NVMe SSD storage. Operating on the Nitro hypervisor, the instance delivers a baseline network bandwidth of 1 Gbps. Performance benchmarks indicate average single-core capabilities, with a stress-ng single-core score of 1484.88 and single-threaded gzip compression of 23.82 GB/sec. However, multi-core and memory bandwidth metrics fall into lower performance tiers. The qualitative cost profile is characterized by a low-capacity, dedicated compute resource bundled with high-speed local storage. This instance is best suited for lightweight compute tasks, single-threaded processing, and development environments requiring local scratch space.

    Workload Profiles

    0.15Score
    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.
