    Server Description

    A compute-optimized instance featuring dedicated Intel Xeon processing, DDR4 memory, and local NVMe SSD storage for single-threaded workloads.

    Compute OptimizedStorage & Database

    Amazon Web Services c5d.large is a compute-optimized instance featuring 2 vCPUs and 1 physical core powered by an Intel Xeon 8124M processor running at 3.4 GHz. Built on the x86_64 architecture and managed by the Nitro hypervisor, this instance includes 4.0 GB of DDR4 memory and 50 GB of local NVMe SSD storage. Benchmark results indicate average single-core performance, with a Geekbench single-core score of 1122.0 and a stress-ng single-core score of 1484.88. However, multi-core and memory bandwidth metrics are low, as shown by a Geekbench multi-core score of 1339.0 and large-block memory read speeds of 12.85 GB/sec. The instance is suited for single-threaded compute tasks, lightweight web serving, and workloads requiring fast local scratch storage, though it is constrained by its low memory capacity and limited multi-core scaling.

    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.
