      Server Description

      A compute-optimized x86_64 instance featuring high-speed DDR5 memory and top-tier single-core performance for dedicated processing workloads.

      Compute OptimizedGeneral Purpose

      Amazon Web Services c8i.2xlarge is an x86_64 compute-optimized instance featuring 8 vCPUs across 4 physical Intel Xeon 6975P-C cores running at 3.9 GHz. It includes 16.0 GB of DDR5 memory at 7 GHz, providing 2.0 GB of RAM per core, and operates on the Nitro hypervisor with a 4 Gbps baseline network speed. The instance does not bundle local storage or GPUs. Benchmark results show top-tier single-core performance, with a Geekbench single-core score of 2207.0 and strong single-threaded compression speeds. It also features Intel Advanced Matrix Extensions (AMX) and AVX-512, which assist in small-scale machine learning inference. This instance is designed for compute-heavy workloads, text processing, and web serving where dedicated CPU resources are required without the need for local NVMe storage.

      Workload Profiles

      0.944Score
      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.
