Server Description
High-density 32-core Arm server featuring bundled local NVMe SSD storage and balanced 64 GB memory for compute-heavy workloads.
Amazon Web Services c9gd.8xlarge is a compute-optimized instance driven by 32 dedicated arm64 AWS Graviton processor cores operating at 3.3 GHz on the AWS Nitro hypervisor. Configured with 64.0 GB of memory (2.0 GB per core), it exhibits a 1:2 RAM-to-vCPU ratio suited for compute-heavy processing. The instance features 1900 GB of direct-attached local NVMe SSD storage and a baseline network throughput of 17 Gbps. The combination of dedicated physical cores and integrated high-speed local storage yields stable single-core execution with low-latency local disk I/O, making it cost-efficient for core-bound workloads. Because the local NVMe storage is ephemeral, stateful applications must implement replication or external persistence. The c9gd.8xlarge is best suited for compute-intensive tasks requiring local scratch storage, including batch log processing, high-throughput web serving, ad tech pipelines, and local caching nodes.
