    Server Description

    A dense storage instance offering massive local HDD capacity and balanced memory for big data, file systems, and data warehousing.

    Storage & DatabaseGeneral Purpose

    Amazon Web Services d3en.2xlarge is a dense storage instance designed for network and storage-intensive workloads. Powered by an Intel Xeon 8259CL x86_64 processor, it features 8 vCPUs, 32.0 GB of DDR4 memory, and a massive 55,920 GB of local HDD storage. Operating on the AWS Nitro hypervisor, the instance delivers a baseline network bandwidth of 12 Gbps. Performance benchmarks show average multi-core CPU and memory bandwidth capabilities, though single-core and multi-core computational scaling benchmarks are relatively weak. Lacking GPU acceleration, it is not suited for machine learning or high-performance computing. Instead, its high storage density makes it highly cost-efficient for data warehousing, big data analytics, MapReduce, and large-scale file systems where massive local capacity is required alongside moderate processing power.

    Workload Profiles

    0.447Score
    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.
