      Server Description

      A dedicated ARM64 compute instance featuring four physical cores and optimized network bandwidth for efficient scale-out workloads.

      Compute OptimizedGeneral Purpose

      Amazon Web Services c6gn.xlarge is a compute-optimized, ARM64-based instance powered by a 2.5 GHz AWS Graviton Neoverse-N1 processor. It features 4 dedicated physical cores and 4 vCPUs with no hyperthreading, paired with 8.0 GB of system memory. Operating on the Nitro hypervisor, the instance lacks local storage and GPU accelerators but offers a baseline network bandwidth of 6 Gbps. Benchmark data shows average CPU performance with a stress-ng multi-core score of 6055.47, alongside moderate memory write bandwidth of 35.07 GB/sec. It exhibits weaker performance in complex instruction sets and memory-intensive tasks, as shown by its PassMark CPU score of 2702.34. This instance provides a cost-efficient, resource-dense profile for scale-out workloads, lightweight database operations, and static web serving.

      Workload Profiles

      0.31Score
      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.
