    Server Description

    A storage-optimized platform combining dense local NVMe storage, DDR5 memory, and strong single-core performance for data-intensive workloads.

    Storage & DatabaseMemory Optimized

    Amazon Web Services i7ie.3xlarge is a storage-optimized server featuring an Intel Xeon 8559C processor with 12 dedicated vCPUs, 6 physical cores, and a 3.2 GHz clock speed. Built on the x86_64 architecture, it includes 96.0 GB of DDR5 memory running at 6 GHz and a bundled 7500 GB local NVMe SSD. Operating on the Nitro hypervisor, the server provides a baseline network bandwidth of 12 Gbps. In benchmark testing, the instance demonstrates top-tier single-core capabilities, scoring 2307.0 in Geekbench single-core and 2928.0 in text processing. It also exhibits strong single-threaded compression speeds and fast text generation for small LLM models. The high density of local storage and memory makes this server suitable for database hosting, text processing, and data-intensive applications requiring low-latency storage access.

    Workload Profiles

    1.33Score
    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.
