      Server Description

      A single-core ARM64 instance with dedicated CPU allocation and balanced memory for lightweight workloads and development.

      General Purpose

      Amazon Web Services m8gn.medium is a general-purpose, network and EBS-optimized instance powered by a single-core AWS Graviton Neoverse-V2 ARMv9 processor running at 2.8 GHz. It features 1 dedicated vCPU, 4.0 GB of memory, and a 3 Gbps baseline network bandwidth, operating on the Nitro hypervisor with no local storage. Benchmarks show average single-core performance, with a Geekbench single-core score of 1746.0 and strong single-threaded bzip3 decompression at 14.21 GB/sec. However, multi-core and memory bandwidth metrics are limited by the single-core architecture. This instance provides a cost-effective, low-resource profile for ARM64 development, lightweight microservices, and basic web serving.

      Workload Profiles

      0.162Score
      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.
