Server Description
A memory-optimized platform combining dedicated AMD EPYC processors and high-speed DDR5 memory for demanding database and compute workloads.
Amazon Web Services r7a.12xlarge is a memory-optimized instance featuring 48 dedicated physical cores powered by an AMD EPYC 9R14 processor running at 3.7 GHz. It is equipped with 384.0 GB of DDR5 memory operating at 5 GHz, delivering a high memory-to-core ratio of 8.0 GB per core. Operating on the AWS Nitro hypervisor, the instance provides 19 Gbps of baseline network bandwidth but contains no local storage. Performance benchmarks place this instance in the top 10% for multi-core CPU execution and software compilation, alongside strong memory bandwidth and database operation metrics. Qualitatively, its high-density DDR5 memory and dedicated compute resources offer strong efficiency for memory-bound workloads. It is highly suited for in-memory databases, Redis caching layers, software compilation pipelines, and large-scale data processing tasks.
