    Server Description

    An x86_64 general-purpose instance featuring balanced memory, dedicated Intel Xeon cores, and integrated local NVMe SSD storage for standard workloads.

    General PurposeStorage & Database

    Amazon Web Services m5d.4xlarge is an x86_64 general-purpose instance featuring 16 vCPUs and 64.0 GB of DDR4 RAM, powered by an Intel Xeon 8259CL processor running at 3.1 GHz. It includes a bundled 600 GB local NVMe SSD instance store and operates on the Nitro hypervisor with a 5 Gbps baseline network speed. Performance benchmarks indicate a tradeoff: single-core CPU execution and single-threaded compression tasks fall into the bottom 25% tier, while multi-core operations, memory bandwidth, and database transactions perform in the average middle 50% range. Lacking a GPU, the instance is not designed for heavy acceleration but supports standard workloads. The combination of balanced memory density and local NVMe storage makes this instance suitable for general-purpose applications, web serving, and database workloads that benefit from high-speed temporary local storage.

    Workload Profiles

    0.8Score
    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.
