Server Description
A memory-optimized instance featuring a high RAM-to-vCPU ratio and average multi-core performance for memory-intensive database and caching workloads.
Amazon Web Services r5n.4xlarge is an x86_64 memory-optimized instance featuring 16 vCPUs and 128.0 GB of DDR4 memory, running on an Intel Xeon 8259CL processor at 3.1 GHz. Built on the Nitro hypervisor, it provides a dedicated CPU allocation with 8 physical cores and a baseline network bandwidth of 16 Gbps, though it lacks local storage and GPU accelerators. Benchmark data reveals a performance tradeoff: single-core CPU performance and single-threaded compression tasks are weak, falling into the bottom 25%, whereas multi-core CPU performance, memory bandwidth, and database operations consistently rank in the average tier. This hardware profile is qualitatively cost-efficient for memory-heavy applications that do not demand high single-core processing speeds. The r5n.4xlarge is suited for memory-intensive workloads such as database operations, Redis caching, and static web serving.
