    Server Description

    A storage-optimized server combining dedicated Intel Xeon processors, 256 GB RAM, and 7.5 TB of high-speed local NVMe SSD storage.

    Storage & DatabaseMemory Optimized

    Amazon Web Services i4i.8xlarge is a storage-optimized server designed for data-intensive workloads. Powered by an Intel Xeon 8375C processor with 32 dedicated vCPUs running at 3.5 GHz, it features 256 GB of DDR4 memory and 7500 GB of local NVMe SSD storage. Operating on the AWS Nitro hypervisor, it provides a baseline network bandwidth of 19 Gbps. Benchmarks indicate solid mid-tier performance, with a Passmark CPU score of 36608.74 and a Redis SET throughput of 31.16 million operations per second. The server exhibits strong performance in small-model LLM text generation, though large-model processing is limited. This hardware profile makes the i4i.8xlarge suitable for transactional databases, data warehousing, and analytical applications requiring low-latency local storage.

    Workload Profiles

    1.75Score
    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.
