    Server Description

    High-density 192-core ARM compute instance featuring 11.4 TB local NVMe storage and high memory bandwidth for parallel and database workloads.

    Compute OptimizedStorage & Database

    Amazon Web Services c8gd.48xlarge is a compute-optimized instance featuring 192 dedicated physical ARMv9 Neoverse-V2 cores running at 2.7 GHz under the AWS Nitro System hypervisor. It integrates 384.0 GB of memory, 11,400 GB of local NVMe SSD instance storage, and a baseline network bandwidth of 50 Gbps. Synthetic benchmarks showcase top-tier capabilities in multi-core CPU performance, software compilation, memory bandwidth exceeding 900 GB/sec for uncached reads, and database operations reaching 362.69 million Redis SET ops/sec. While single-threaded processing falls into average performance tiers, the density of physical cores and direct-attached storage provide qualitative cost efficiency for scale-out parallel systems. Primary suitable workloads include distributed database clusters, Redis caching nodes, parallel CI/CD compilation pipelines, static web serving, and high-concurrency batch processing.

    Workload Profiles

    10Score
    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.
