    Server Description

    A bare-metal platform combining 192 dedicated Intel Xeon cores, DDR5 memory, and 11.4 TB of local NVMe SSD storage.

    General PurposeStorage & DatabaseCompute Optimized

    Amazon Web Services m8id.metal-48xl is a bare-metal general-purpose server featuring 192 dedicated Intel Xeon 6975P-C vCPUs running at 3.9 GHz, paired with 768 GB of DDR5 RAM and 11,400 GB of local NVMe SSD storage. It delivers top-tier multi-core CPU performance, memory bandwidth, and database operations, ranking in the top 10% across multiple benchmarks, including Redis SET operations and static web serving throughput. However, single-core CPU performance and small-model LLM text generation represent relative tradeoffs, placing in the middle 50% average. With a 75 Gbps baseline network bandwidth and advanced vector and matrix extensions, this instance is suited for high-density database workloads, multi-threaded data processing, software compilation, and medium-scale LLM prompt processing.

    Workload Profiles

    9.43Score
    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.
