Server Description
A memory-optimized instance featuring dedicated AMD EPYC processors and high-speed DDR5 memory for memory-intensive enterprise workloads.
The Amazon Web Services r7a.4xlarge is a memory-optimized instance featuring 16 dedicated physical cores powered by an AMD EPYC 9R14 processor running at 3.7 GHz. Built on the AWS Nitro System, it is equipped with 128.0 GB of DDR5 memory operating at 5 GHz, providing a high memory-to-core ratio of 8.0 GB per core. The instance does not include local storage or a GPU, relying on network-attached storage and a baseline network bandwidth of 6 Gbps. In benchmark testing, the r7a.4xlarge exhibits strong single-core CPU and text processing capabilities, alongside top-tier text generation speeds for small language models. Its multi-core and memory bandwidth metrics remain in the average tier. This instance is designed for memory-intensive workloads such as database operations, caching layers, and text processing tasks.
