Server Description
An ARM-based storage-optimized instance featuring massive local NVMe SSD capacity and dedicated physical cores for database and data-serving workloads.
Amazon Web Services im4gn.8xlarge is a storage-optimized instance utilizing the arm64 AWS Graviton Neoverse-N1 processor. It features 32 dedicated physical cores running at 2.5 GHz, 128.0 GB of RAM, and a substantial 15,000 GB of local NVMe SSD storage. Operating on the Nitro hypervisor, it delivers a baseline network bandwidth of 50 Gbps. Benchmark data shows average multi-core performance, with a stress-ng multi-core score of 48,576.94 and 38.19 million operations per second in Redis SET tests. However, single-core performance is a tradeoff, with weak Geekbench single-core and poor single-threaded bzip3 decompression results. This instance offers strong qualitative cost efficiency for storage-intensive applications, making it highly suitable for large databases, static web serving, and multi-threaded data processing workloads where massive local storage is required.
