    Server Description

    A high-density storage and memory-optimized platform featuring forty-five terabytes of local NVMe SSD capacity and seventy-two dedicated virtual CPUs.

    Storage & DatabaseMemory Optimized

    Amazon Web Services i7ie.18xlarge is a storage-optimized instance featuring 72 vCPUs powered by an Intel Xeon 8559C processor running at 3.6 GHz on the Nitro hypervisor. It is equipped with 576.0 GB of DDR5 memory and a massive 45,000 GB of local NVMe SSD storage, with no integrated GPUs. The instance delivers top-tier performance in database operations, static web serving, and image processing, alongside strong multi-core and memory bandwidth capabilities. While single-core performance and large-scale LLM text generation remain average, the high-density local storage and memory configuration offer significant qualitative cost efficiency by eliminating external storage overhead. This server is engineered for large-scale databases, high-throughput web serving, and memory-intensive enterprise workloads.

    Workload Profiles

    4.41Score
    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.
