Server Description
A memory-optimized instance featuring 384 GB of DDR4 RAM and 50 Gbps network bandwidth for memory-intensive workloads.
Amazon Web Services r5n.12xlarge is a memory-optimized instance featuring 48 vCPUs and 24 physical cores powered by an Intel Xeon 8259CL processor running at 3.1 GHz. Built on the Nitro hypervisor, it provides 384.0 GB of DDR4 RAM, resulting in an 8.0 GB per core memory allocation. The instance does not include local storage or GPU hardware, but offers a 50 Gbps baseline network bandwidth. Performance benchmarks reveal a contrast between weak single-core execution and average multi-core capabilities, with memory bandwidth and database operations performing in the middle 50% tier. This hardware profile is designed for memory-intensive workloads, database management, and caching systems such as Redis, where high memory capacity and network throughput are prioritized over raw single-threaded compute performance.
