      Server Description

      An ARM64 general-purpose instance delivering top-tier memory performance and balanced compute resources for database and web-serving workloads.

      General Purpose

      Amazon Web Services m8gb.2xlarge is a general-purpose instance featuring 8 dedicated ARM64 cores powered by the AWS Graviton Neoverse-V2 processor running at 2.8 GHz. It is equipped with 32.0 GB of RAM, providing a balanced 4.0 GB per core, and operates on the Nitro hypervisor with a 17 Gbps baseline network speed. The instance does not include local storage or GPU accelerators. Benchmark data highlights top-tier memory performance, with PassMark memory scores in the top 10% and strong single-core Geekbench results. However, it shows weaker performance in cryptographic encryption and medium-model LLM prompt processing. The m8gb.2xlarge is suited for general-purpose applications, database operations, static web serving, and memory-intensive caching workloads.

      Workload Profiles

      0.926Score
      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.
