      Server Description

      An ARM-based, memory-optimized server featuring high-density RAM and dedicated physical cores for memory-intensive database and network workloads.

      Memory OptimizedStorage & Database

      Amazon Web Services r8gn.4xlarge is an arm64 memory-optimized server powered by 16 dedicated physical cores of the AWS Graviton ARMv9 Neoverse-V2 processor running at 2.8 GHz. Operating on the Nitro hypervisor, it features 128.0 GB of system memory, providing 8.0 GB of RAM per core, with no local storage or GPUs. The instance delivers a baseline network bandwidth of 50 Gbps and is optimized for EBS. Benchmark data shows top-tier memory performance, with Passmark memory scores in the top 10% and large-block memory bandwidth in the top 25%. While database operations and text processing perform strongly, LLM text generation benchmarks are poor, highlighting a tradeoff for AI workloads. This server is suited for memory-intensive databases, caching layers, and high-throughput network applications.

      Workload Profiles

      1.56Score
      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.
