    Server Description

    A general-purpose instance combining high-speed DDR5 memory, local NVMe SSD storage, and advanced matrix extensions for demanding enterprise workloads.

    General PurposeStorage & DatabaseCompute Optimized

    Amazon Web Services m8id.16xlarge is a general-purpose instance featuring 64 vCPUs and 32 physical cores powered by an Intel Xeon 6975P-C processor running at 3.9 GHz. Built on the Nitro hypervisor, it includes 256.0 GB of DDR5 memory and 3800 GB of local NVMe SSD storage. The instance lacks dedicated GPUs but delivers strong performance across multi-core benchmarks, with top-tier results in Geekbench software compilation, image processing, and static web serving throughput. It also supports advanced instruction sets like AVX-512 and Intel AMX. The balanced vCPU-to-RAM ratio of 1:4, combined with high-speed local storage, makes this instance highly suitable for database operations, web serving, software development, and medium-scale language model inference.

    Workload Profiles

    4.47Score
    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.
