    Server Description

    A compute-optimized platform featuring dedicated high-frequency processors, DDR5 memory, and integrated high-speed local NVMe storage for intensive data processing.

    Compute OptimizedStorage & Database

    The Amazon Web Services c8id.8xlarge is a compute-optimized instance utilizing the Nitro hypervisor and an x86_64 Intel Xeon 6975P-C processor. Operating at 3.9 GHz, it delivers 32 dedicated vCPUs across 16 physical cores, supported by 64.0 GB of DDR5 memory at 7 GHz and a 480 MB L3 cache. Storage is provided via a 1900 GB local NVMe SSD instance store, complemented by a 15 Gbps baseline network bandwidth. The processor features advanced instruction sets like AVX-512 and Intel AMX for matrix operations. In benchmarks, the instance shows strong performance in text processing, multi-threaded decompression, and small-to-medium LLM inference. It is highly suited for compute-heavy applications, software compilation, and database workloads requiring fast local storage.

    Workload Profiles

    2.76Score
    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.
