      Server Description

      A bare-metal, memory-optimized server featuring dedicated Intel Xeon processors and high-speed networking for demanding database and enterprise workloads.

      Memory OptimizedStorage & Database

      Amazon Web Services r5n.metal is a bare-metal, memory-optimized server featuring 96 vCPUs across 48 physical cores of an Intel Xeon 8259CL processor running at 3.1 GHz. Equipped with 768.0 GB of DDR4 memory and a 100 Gbps baseline network bandwidth, this instance is built for high-throughput, memory-intensive workloads. It lacks local storage and GPUs, relying entirely on network-attached storage. Benchmarks show strong multi-core performance, with a PassMark CPU score of 57382.97, and exceptional memory bandwidth, reaching 4545.42 GB/sec for cached reads. It excels in database operations and Redis performance, achieving 77.09 million operations per second. However, single-core performance is average, and LLM text generation is weak due to the absence of hardware acceleration. This server is highly suited for large-scale in-memory databases, data-intensive enterprise applications, and network-heavy workloads requiring dedicated bare-metal resources.

      Workload Profiles

      3.22Score
      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.
