      Server Description

      An ARM-based compute-optimized instance featuring dedicated physical cores and balanced multi-threaded performance for containerized workloads and web serving.

      Compute OptimizedGeneral Purpose

      Amazon Web Services c6g.2xlarge is a compute-optimized instance featuring 8 dedicated physical cores and 8 vCPUs powered by the 64-bit ARMv8 AWS Graviton2 Neoverse-N1 processor running at 2.5 GHz. Built on the AWS Nitro hypervisor, it includes 16.0 GB of memory (2.0 GB per core), 32 MB of L3 cache, and 2 Gbps of baseline network bandwidth, with no local storage or GPUs. Benchmark data shows average multi-core performance, with a stress-ng multi-core score of 12132.72 and a Geekbench multi-core score of 5457.0, alongside average results in software compilation and database operations. However, single-core performance and memory bandwidth write speeds are weaker. This instance is qualitatively cost-efficient for ARM-native multi-threaded workloads, making it suitable for static web serving, software compilation, containerized applications, and distributed database nodes.

      Workload Profiles

      0.54Score
      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.
