    Server Description

    An ARM64 storage-optimized instance combining a massive local NVMe SSD with top-tier memory bandwidth for data-intensive workloads.

    Storage & DatabaseMemory Optimized

    Amazon Web Services i8ge.3xlarge is a storage-optimized instance featuring 12 dedicated physical cores powered by an ARM64 AWS Graviton Neoverse-V2 processor running at 2.8 GHz. It is equipped with 96.0 GB of system memory and a bundled 7500 GB local NVMe SSD. Operating on the Nitro hypervisor, the instance delivers a baseline network bandwidth of 12 Gbps. Benchmark evaluations highlight top-tier memory performance, with Passmark memory scores in the top 10% and strong large-block memory bandwidth. Single-core processing and text manipulation also rank in the top 25%, though cryptographic operations and LLM inference show weaker relative performance. This hardware configuration provides a highly efficient balance of dense local storage and memory, making it an optimal fit for transactional databases, caching systems, and indexing workloads.

    Workload Profiles

    1.25Score
    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.
