      Server Description

      A bare-metal, memory-optimized platform featuring ninety-six dedicated AMD EPYC cores and high-speed DDR5 RAM for demanding enterprise database workloads.

      Memory OptimizedCompute Optimized

      Amazon Web Services r8a.metal-24xl is a memory-optimized bare-metal server featuring 96 dedicated physical cores powered by an AMD EPYC 9R45 processor running at 4.5 GHz. Built on the x86_64 architecture, it is equipped with 768.0 GB of DDR5 memory operating at 6 GHz, yielding 8.0 GB of RAM per core. The server does not include local storage or GPUs, but provides a baseline network bandwidth of 40 Gbps. Benchmark results place this instance in the top tier for single-core and multi-core CPU performance, memory bandwidth, and database operations, with Redis SET performance reaching 235.68 million operations per second. It is highly suited for memory-intensive workloads, including large-scale in-memory databases, enterprise applications, software compilation, and CPU-based large language model inference.

      Workload Profiles

      8.06Score
      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.
