    Server Description

    A storage-optimized platform combining high-capacity local NVMe SSDs with DDR5 memory and advanced Intel matrix extensions for data-intensive workloads.

    Storage & DatabaseMemory Optimized

    Amazon Web Services i7i.8xlarge is a storage-optimized server powered by an Intel Xeon 8559C processor with 32 vCPUs and 256.0 GB of DDR5 memory. Built on the x86_64 architecture and managed by the AWS Nitro hypervisor, it features 7500 GB of local NVMe SSD storage and a 25 Gbps baseline network speed. Performance benchmarks show top-tier single-core execution and image processing, alongside strong uncached memory bandwidth and data decompression throughput. The CPU supports AVX-512 and Intel AMX extensions, delivering strong prompt processing for large language models, though text generation for massive models is limited. This server is highly efficient for workloads requiring high-density local storage and fast memory access, making it a strong fit for transactional databases, data indexing, static web serving, and CPU-based machine learning inference.

    Workload Profiles

    2.85Score
    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.
