    Server Description

    An ARM64 general-purpose instance featuring dedicated Graviton cores, high-speed local NVMe storage, and top-tier memory bandwidth for data-intensive workloads.

    General PurposeStorage & Database

    Amazon Web Services m8gd.8xlarge is a general-purpose server powered by 32 dedicated ARMv9 AWS Graviton physical cores running at 2.8 GHz. It features 128.0 GB of system memory, a bundled 1900 GB NVMe SSD local instance store, and a baseline network bandwidth of 15 Gbps. Operating on the AWS Nitro hypervisor, this instance delivers top-tier performance in large-block memory bandwidth, multi-core Geekbench processing, and database operations. While single-core and LLM inference tasks perform at average levels, the high memory throughput and integrated local NVMe storage make it a highly cost-efficient option for resource-dense workloads. It is optimized for database hosting, caching layers, multi-threaded software compilation, and high-throughput static web serving.

    Workload Profiles

    2.84Score
    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.
