    Server Description

    An ARM64 general-purpose platform combining forty-eight dedicated cores with high-capacity local NVMe SSD storage for balanced multi-threaded workloads.

    General PurposeStorage & Database

    Amazon Web Services m6gd.12xlarge is an ARM64 general-purpose instance powered by a 48-core AWS Graviton Neoverse-N1 processor running at 2.5 GHz. It features 192.0 GB of system memory, 2850 GB of local NVMe SSD storage, and a 20 Gbps baseline network interface. Benchmarks reveal strong multi-core CPU performance, ranking in the top 25%, contrasted by weaker single-core execution and lower performance in large-model LLM inference tasks. The instance maintains average ratings in memory bandwidth, software compilation, and database operations. With its dedicated physical cores and integrated local NVMe storage, this server offers a resource-dense, qualitatively cost-efficient platform. It is best suited for multi-threaded workloads, static web serving, Redis deployments, and applications requiring high-speed local scratch space.

    Workload Profiles

    2Score
    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.
