    Server Description

    A bare-metal ARMv9 server combining high-density DDR5 memory and local NVMe storage for data-intensive and multi-threaded workloads.

    Memory OptimizedStorage & DatabaseCompute Optimized

    Amazon Web Services r8gd.metal-24xl is a bare-metal, memory-optimized server utilizing 96 dedicated physical cores of the 2.8 GHz AWS Graviton ARMv9 Neoverse-V2 architecture. It features 768.0 GB of DDR5 memory, 5700 GB of local NVMe SSD storage, and a 40 Gbps baseline network bandwidth. Benchmark results highlight top-tier multi-core CPU performance, exceptional memory bandwidth, and high database operation speeds, though single-core processing and small-model LLM text generation show average to poor performance. This hardware profile delivers strong qualitative cost efficiency for memory-intensive and storage-heavy workloads by combining high-density DDR5 RAM with local NVMe storage. It is highly suitable for large-scale databases, multi-threaded software compilation, high-throughput static web serving, and data-intensive enterprise applications.

    Workload Profiles

    6.5Score
    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.
