      Server Description

      A bare-metal, compute-optimized server featuring seventy-two virtual cores and high-speed hundred gigabit per second networking for parallel workloads.

      Compute OptimizedGeneral Purpose

      Amazon Web Services c5n.metal is a bare-metal, compute-optimized server powered by a dedicated Intel Xeon 8124M processor with 36 physical cores and 72 vCPUs running at 3.4 GHz. It features 192.0 GB of DDR4 memory and a 100 Gbps baseline network interface, with no local storage or GPU accelerators. Benchmarks show strong multi-core CPU performance and memory bandwidth, placing in the top 25%, while single-core metrics and LLM text generation speeds remain average to poor. This bare-metal instance offers high resource density and direct hardware access, making it highly cost-efficient for parallel computing and network-heavy operations. It is best suited for clustered databases, high-performance computing, multi-threaded data processing, and high-throughput web serving.

      Workload Profiles

      2.29Score
      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.
