    Server Description

    An arm64 storage-optimized instance combining 32 dedicated cores, 256 GB RAM, and 7.5 TB of local NVMe SSD storage for database workloads.

    Storage & DatabaseMemory Optimized

    Amazon Web Services i4g.8xlarge is an arm64 storage-optimized instance featuring 32 dedicated physical cores powered by AWS Graviton Neoverse-N1 processors running at 2.5 GHz. It is equipped with 256.0 GB of RAM and 7500 GB of local NVMe SSD storage, operating on the Nitro hypervisor with a 19 Gbps baseline network bandwidth. Benchmark results show average multi-core CPU performance, with a stress-ng multi-core score of 48581.53, alongside average database operations and memory bandwidth. However, single-threaded performance is weak, as evidenced by a Geekbench single-core score of 962.0 and weak text processing. This resource profile offers qualitative cost efficiency for storage-intensive deployments. It is suited for database operations, multi-threaded data processing, and static web serving workloads requiring high-capacity local NVMe storage.

    Workload Profiles

    1.5Score
    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.
