    Server Description

    A memory-optimized x86_64 platform featuring dedicated Intel Xeon processors, high-capacity DDR4 memory, and integrated local NVMe SSD storage.

    Memory OptimizedStorage & Database

    Amazon Web Services r6id.8xlarge is a memory-optimized instance featuring 32 dedicated vCPUs from an Intel Xeon 8375C processor running at 3.5 GHz, paired with 256.0 GB of DDR4 memory and 1900 GB of local NVMe SSD storage. Operating on the Nitro hypervisor, this x86_64 architecture server delivers a balanced hardware profile with 8.0 GB of RAM per core and a 12 Gbps baseline network speed. Benchmark results place the instance in the middle 50% tier for general compute, memory bandwidth, and database operations, achieving 31.0 million Redis SET operations per second. However, it exhibits a performance tradeoff in large-scale AI workloads, with poor inference speeds on 70B parameter models. This instance is designed for memory-intensive applications, database hosting, and caching systems.

    Workload Profiles

    1.77Score
    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.
