      CPU and System Topology

      Server Description

      An ARM64 general-purpose instance delivering exceptional memory bandwidth and strong multi-core performance for scale-out workloads and database operations.

      General PurposeCompute Optimized

      Amazon Web Services m8g.12xlarge is an ARM64-based general-purpose instance powered by 48 dedicated physical cores of the AWS Graviton ARMv9 Neoverse-V2 processor running at 2.8 GHz. It features 192 GB of RAM, yielding a balanced 4.0 GB per core, and runs on the Nitro hypervisor with a baseline network bandwidth of 22 Gbps. The instance lacks local storage and dedicated GPUs. Benchmark data highlights top-tier memory bandwidth, with uncached read speeds of 404.77 GB/sec, and strong multi-core performance, as evidenced by a Geekbench multi-core score of 23,515. Qualitatively, the ARM64 architecture offers high resource density and memory efficiency for scale-out environments. This instance is suited for multi-threaded applications, database operations, software compilation, and static web serving.

      Workload Profiles

      3.7Score
      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.
