    Server Description

    A high-density general-purpose instance combining dedicated Intel Xeon processing with massive local NVMe SSD storage and DDR5 memory.

    General PurposeStorage & Database

    Amazon Web Services m8id.16xlarge is a general-purpose instance featuring 64 dedicated vCPUs (32 physical cores) powered by an Intel Xeon 6975P-C processor running at 3.9 GHz. It is equipped with 256.0 GB of high-speed 7 GHz DDR5 memory and 3800 GB of local NVMe SSD instance storage. Operating on the Nitro hypervisor, the instance delivers 30 Gbps of baseline network bandwidth. Benchmark results show top-tier multi-core capabilities, including a Geekbench multi-core score of 21132.0 and static web serving throughput of 105.65 GB/sec. The hardware configuration is highly optimized for parallel workloads, utilizing Intel AVX-512 and AMX extensions. This resource-dense profile offers excellent qualitative cost efficiency for data-intensive applications. It is highly suited for database hosting, software compilation, and large-scale web serving.

    Workload Profiles

    4.5Score
    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.
