    Server Description

    A compute-optimized platform featuring high-speed DDR5 memory, local NVMe SSD storage, and advanced matrix extensions for intensive processing workloads.

    Compute OptimizedStorage & Database

    Amazon Web Services c8id.12xlarge is a compute-optimized instance featuring 48 vCPUs and 24 physical cores powered by an Intel Xeon 6975P-C processor running at 3.9 GHz. Built on the Nitro hypervisor, it includes 96.0 GB of DDR5 memory and 2850 GB of local NVMe SSD storage. The processor supports Advanced Matrix Extensions and Advanced Vector Extensions, enhancing vector and matrix operations. Benchmark data shows strong performance in software compilation, database operations, and image processing, alongside top-tier text processing capabilities. Read-only memory bandwidth is highly efficient, while write bandwidth and multi-core CPU stress tests perform at average levels. With a baseline network bandwidth of 22 Gbps, this instance is suited for high-performance computing, database hosting, and localized machine learning inference.

    Workload Profiles

    3.66Score
    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.
