      Server Description

      A dedicated AMD-powered instance offering strong single-core performance and balanced DDR5 memory for general-purpose workloads.

      General Purpose

      Amazon Web Services m7a.xlarge is a general-purpose instance featuring 4 dedicated vCPUs on an AMD EPYC 9R14 processor running at 3.7 GHz, paired with 16.0 GB of DDR5 memory. Operating on the Nitro hypervisor, this x86_64 instance lacks local storage and GPUs, relying on a baseline network bandwidth of 2 Gbps. Performance benchmarks show strong single-core capabilities, with Geekbench single-core and stress-ng single-core scores in the top 25%. Conversely, uncached large-block memory read and write bandwidths are weak, representing a key hardware tradeoff. The processor supports advanced instruction sets including AVX-512 and cryptographic acceleration. It delivers average multi-core performance and database operations, making it a balanced option for workloads requiring dedicated compute resources without high memory bandwidth demands.

      Workload Profiles

      0.435Score
      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.
