      Server Description

      An arm64 memory-optimized instance with a dedicated single-core processor and high memory-to-CPU ratio for lightweight caching workloads.

      Memory Optimized

      Amazon Web Services r6g.medium is a memory-optimized instance featuring a single dedicated AWS Graviton Neoverse-N1 physical core on the arm64 architecture. Running at 2.5 GHz, it is equipped with 8.0 GB of RAM, providing a high memory-to-vCPU ratio. The instance operates on the Nitro hypervisor, lacks local storage, and has no GPU. Benchmark results indicate average single-core CPU performance but lower multi-core and memory bandwidth scores due to its single-core limitation. It is qualitatively cost-efficient for memory-bound, single-threaded workloads, such as lightweight caching layers, small database operations, and basic web serving.

      Workload Profiles

      0.105Score
      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.
