    Server Description

    A storage-optimized instance featuring high-capacity local NVMe SSD storage and balanced memory for data-intensive database workloads.

    Storage & DatabaseMemory Optimized

    Amazon Web Services i3en.2xlarge is a storage-optimized instance built on the Nitro hypervisor, featuring an Intel Xeon 8259CL processor with 8 vCPUs and 64.0 GB of DDR4 memory. It is equipped with a substantial 5000 GB of local NVMe SSD storage and provides an 8 Gbps baseline network bandwidth. Benchmark data shows average multi-core CPU performance, memory bandwidth, and database operations, though single-core and cryptographic performance are relatively weak. The instance offers a high ratio of storage and memory to compute resources, making it qualitatively cost-efficient for data-intensive applications. It is best suited for workloads such as transactional databases, Redis caching, and distributed file systems that benefit from high-capacity local NVMe storage.

    Workload Profiles

    0.44Score
    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.
