      Server Description

      An ARM64 compute-optimized instance featuring forty-eight dedicated cores and high-speed seventy-five gigabit network bandwidth for multi-threaded workloads.

      Compute Optimized

      Amazon Web Services c6gn.12xlarge is a compute-optimized instance built on the AWS Nitro hypervisor and powered by 48 dedicated ARM64 physical cores via the AWS Graviton Neoverse-N1 processor. Operating at 2.5 GHz, it includes 96.0 GB of memory, resulting in 2.0 GB per core, and lacks local storage or GPU accelerators. The instance features a high baseline network bandwidth of 75 Gbps. Performance benchmarks show strong multi-core capabilities, with a stress-ng multi-core score of 72814.16, though single-core performance remains average to weak. Memory read bandwidth reaches 167.25 GB/sec for large blocks. This hardware profile is suited for network-bound compute workloads, multi-threaded batch processing, and static web serving, offering a cost-efficient alternative to x86 architectures for workloads optimized for ARM64 multi-core scaling.

      Workload Profiles

      1.94Score
      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.
