    Server Description

    An ARM64 memory-optimized instance featuring high-speed local NVMe storage and top-tier memory bandwidth for data-intensive workloads.

    Memory OptimizedStorage & Database

    Amazon Web Services r7gd.8xlarge is a memory-optimized, ARM64-based server powered by a 32-core AWS Graviton processor running at 2.6 GHz. It features 256.0 GB of RAM, providing a high 8.0 GB per core ratio, alongside 1900 GB of local NVMe SSD storage and 15 Gbps baseline network bandwidth. Operating on the Nitro hypervisor, the instance delivers top-tier memory performance, with PassMark memory scores in the top 10% and strong uncached large-block memory read speeds of 235.99 GB/sec. While multi-core CPU performance and database operations are highly competitive, the server exhibits lower efficiency in heavy LLM text generation tasks. This hardware profile is qualitatively cost-efficient for memory-intensive applications, making it an optimal fit for high-performance databases, caching layers, and real-time data analytics.

    Workload Profiles

    2.1Score
    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.
