Server Description
A storage-optimized instance featuring dedicated Intel Xeon processors, high-capacity local NVMe SSDs, and a balanced memory-to-core ratio for database workloads.
The Amazon Web Services i4i.2xlarge is a storage-optimized instance featuring an Intel Xeon 8375C processor with 8 vCPUs, 4 physical cores, and a 3.5 GHz clock speed. Built on the x86_64 architecture and managed by the Nitro hypervisor, it includes 64.0 GB of DDR4 RAM and 1875 GB of local NVMe SSD storage. Benchmarks indicate average performance across most compute and memory metrics, with a Geekbench multi-core score of 5905.0 and Redis SET throughput of 8.49 million operations per second. However, tradeoffs include weak multi-threaded decompression and poor performance on medium-sized LLM inference tasks. Given its high local storage capacity and 1:8 vCPU-to-RAM ratio, the instance is qualitatively cost-efficient for storage-intensive workloads. It is best suited for database operations, static web serving, and software compilation.
