Server Description
A memory-optimized x86 platform featuring 192 dedicated AMD EPYC cores and 1.5 TB of high-speed DDR5 memory for enterprise workloads.
Amazon Web Services r7a.48xlarge is a memory-optimized instance featuring 192 dedicated physical cores powered by AMD EPYC 9R14 processors at 3.7 GHz. Built on the AWS Nitro hypervisor, it provides 1536.0 GB of DDR5 memory running at 5 GHz, translating to 8.0 GB of RAM per core. The instance lacks local storage and GPU accelerators but delivers a baseline network bandwidth of 50 Gbps. Benchmark results show top-tier multi-core CPU performance and memory bandwidth, alongside strong database and Redis SET operations. However, text generation for small LLM models presents a performance tradeoff, scoring in the bottom 25%. This instance is configured for memory-intensive workloads, large-scale database operations, software compilation, and parallel enterprise applications requiring high memory density and substantial compute capacity without local storage requirements.
