    Server Description

    A compute-optimized x86_64 platform featuring dedicated Intel Xeon processors, high-speed DDR5 memory, and integrated local NVMe SSD storage.

    Compute OptimizedStorage & Database

    Amazon Web Services c8id.16xlarge is a compute-optimized instance featuring 64 dedicated vCPUs and 32 physical cores powered by an Intel Xeon 6975P-C processor running at 3.9 GHz. It is equipped with 128 GB of DDR5 memory and 3800 GB of local NVMe SSD storage. Operating on the Nitro hypervisor, the x86_64 architecture supports advanced instruction sets like AVX-512 and Intel AMX. Benchmarks show top-tier performance in software compilation, image processing, and static web serving, alongside strong multi-core CPU capabilities. With a 30 Gbps baseline network bandwidth, this instance offers high qualitative value for resource-dense workloads. It is optimized for database operations, web serving, and CPU-based machine learning inference.

    Workload Profiles

    4.47Score
    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.
