Server Description
A storage-optimized ARM64 platform delivering thirty terabytes of local NVMe SSD capacity and fifty gigabits per second network bandwidth.
The Amazon Web Services is4gen.8xlarge is an ARM64 storage-optimized instance powered by a 32-core AWS Graviton Neoverse-N1 processor running at 2.5 GHz. Built on the Nitro hypervisor, it features 192 GB of RAM and an extensive 30,000 GB of local NVMe SSD storage, supported by a 50 Gbps baseline network bandwidth. Performance benchmarks show average multi-core capabilities, with a stress-ng multi-core score of 48,576.33 and a Geekbench multi-core score of 11,813.0. However, single-core performance represents a tradeoff, with weak single-threaded compression and low single-core Geekbench scores. This instance provides high storage density and predictable dedicated compute resources, making it highly efficient for storage-intensive applications. It is best suited for large-scale databases, high-throughput static web serving, and data-intensive workloads requiring massive local NVMe capacity.
