    Server Description

    A storage-optimized virtual server featuring high-capacity local NVMe SSD storage and balanced memory for database and web serving workloads.

    Storage & DatabaseMemory Optimized

    Amazon Web Services i2.2xlarge is a storage-optimized, second-generation virtual server powered by an Intel Xeon E5-2670 v2 processor. It features 8 dedicated vCPUs, 61.0 GB of memory, and a bundled 1600 GB local NVMe SSD. Operating on the Xen hypervisor with an x86_64 architecture, the instance delivers a baseline network bandwidth of 1 Gbps. Performance benchmarks show average multi-core CPU capabilities and database operations, though single-core performance and memory write bandwidth are relatively weak. Lacking AVX-512 and modern instruction sets, it relies on legacy AVX and AES support. The qualitative cost profile favors workloads requiring high local storage density and moderate memory over raw compute power. It is best suited for database hosting, static web serving, and storage-intensive applications that benefit from direct-attached NVMe SSDs.
