      Server Description

      An ARM64 memory-optimized virtual server delivering high memory density and efficient multi-core processing for database and caching workloads.

      Amazon Web Services r6g.2xlarge is a memory-optimized instance powered by custom 64-bit ARMv8 AWS Graviton2 processors. It features 8 dedicated physical cores running at 2.5 GHz and 64.0 GB of system memory, yielding a high 8.0 GB of RAM per core. The instance lacks local storage and GPU accelerators, relying on a 2 Gbps baseline network connection managed by the AWS Nitro hypervisor. Benchmark results show strong memory bandwidth, with cached small-block reads reaching 473.1 GB/sec, and steady multi-core performance, though single-core compute and cryptographic speeds are relatively weak. Qualitatively, the ARM64 architecture offers high memory density and efficient resource allocation for memory-bound tasks. This instance is best suited for running in-memory databases, caching layers like Redis, data analytics, and memory-intensive web applications.

      Workload Profiles

      0.56Score
      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.
