CPU and System Topology
Server Description
A balanced general-purpose virtual server featuring dedicated Intel Xeon processing and DDR4 memory for entry-level workloads.
Amazon Web Services m6i.large is a general-purpose virtual server utilizing the Nitro hypervisor and an x86_64 Intel Xeon 8375C processor. Operating at 3.5 GHz, it provides 2 vCPUs from a single physical core, 8.0 GB of DDR4 memory, and a 1 Gbps baseline network speed, with no local storage or GPU. Performance benchmarks show average single-core capabilities, such as a Geekbench single-core score of 1543.0, but multi-core and memory bandwidth metrics are relatively low due to the single-core hardware constraint. This server offers a qualitatively cost-effective option for entry-level general-purpose workloads that do not require high multi-threaded throughput. It is best suited for light web serving, single-threaded applications, and development environments.
