    Server Description

    A bare-metal, memory-optimized ARM64 platform featuring high-speed DDR5 memory, massive local NVMe storage, and exceptional multi-core database throughput.

    Memory OptimizedStorage & Database

    The Amazon Web Services r8gd.metal-24xl is a bare-metal, memory-optimized server featuring 96 dedicated physical cores of the ARMv9 Neoverse-V2 AWS Graviton processor running at 2.8 GHz. It is equipped with 768.0 GB of DDR5 memory, 5700 GB of local NVMe SSD storage, and a 40 Gbps baseline network interface. Benchmarks indicate top-tier multi-core CPU performance, exceptional memory read/write bandwidth, and superior database execution speeds, though single-core performance remains average. Lacking GPU acceleration and x86-specific instruction sets, this server is qualitatively cost-efficient for memory-dense and storage-intensive workloads. It is highly suited for large-scale databases, Redis deployments, distributed caching, multi-threaded software compilation, and high-throughput static web serving.

    Workload Profiles

    6.57Score
    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.
