    Server Description

    An ARM-based, memory-optimized server with massive local NVMe storage, delivering top-tier multi-core performance for database and caching workloads.

    Memory OptimizedStorage & DatabaseCompute Optimized

    Amazon Web Services r8gd.48xlarge is an ARM64 memory-optimized server powered by 192 dedicated AWS Graviton Neoverse-V2 physical cores running at 2.7 GHz. It features 1536.0 GB of RAM, 11400 GB of local NVMe SSD storage, and 50 Gbps baseline network bandwidth. Benchmark results indicate top-tier multi-core CPU and memory bandwidth performance, with stress-ng multi-core scoring 314412.22 and Redis SET operations reaching 361.71 million operations per second. Single-core performance remains average, as shown by Geekbench single-core scores. This instance provides high resource density, making it qualitatively cost-efficient for large-scale database deployments, caching layers, and multi-threaded data processing. It is best suited for memory-intensive workloads, database operations, and static web serving.

    Workload Profiles

    10.5Score
    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.
