Server Description
An ARM-powered, network-optimized compute instance featuring dedicated physical cores and balanced memory bandwidth for efficient web serving and database operations.
Amazon Web Services c8gn.xlarge is a compute-optimized instance featuring 4 dedicated physical cores and 4 vCPUs powered by the 2.8 GHz AWS Graviton ARMv9 Neoverse-V2 processor. Built on the Nitro hypervisor, it includes 8.0 GB of memory and a baseline network bandwidth of 12 Gbps, with no local storage or GPU accelerators. Benchmark results indicate average performance across most compute and memory tasks, highlighted by strong single-threaded bzip3 decompression at 14.43 GB/sec and a static web serving throughput of 9.85 GB/sec. However, it exhibits weaker performance in cryptographic and LLM inference tests. This instance offers a cost-efficient, resource-dense profile for dedicated ARM workloads, making it highly suitable for static web serving, software compilation, database operations, and network-optimized applications.
