    Server Description

    An x86_64 general-purpose instance combining dedicated Intel Xeon processors, high-speed DDR5 memory, and integrated local NVMe SSD storage.

    General PurposeStorage & Database

    Amazon Web Services m8id.2xlarge is an x86_64 general-purpose instance running on the Nitro hypervisor. It is equipped with an 8-vCPU Intel Xeon 6975P-C processor operating at 3.9 GHz, featuring a 480 MB L3 cache and support for AMX and AVX-512 instruction sets. The hardware configuration includes 32.0 GB of DDR5 memory and 474 GB of local NVMe SSD instance storage, paired with a 4 Gbps baseline network bandwidth. In benchmark testing, the instance delivers top-tier single-core performance in text processing and strong single-threaded compression speeds, while multi-core compute and memory bandwidth metrics remain average. The local NVMe storage offers qualitative cost efficiency by eliminating external storage overhead for temporary data. This instance is suited for database operations, software compilation, static web serving, and small-scale machine learning inference.

    Workload Profiles

    0.972Score
    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.
