      Server Description

      A single-core, memory-optimized ARM64 instance designed for lightweight, memory-sensitive workloads requiring dedicated CPU allocation and moderate network throughput.

      Memory Optimized

      Amazon Web Services r8gn.medium is a memory-optimized instance featuring a single dedicated AWS Graviton Neoverse-V2 ARMv9 core running at 2.8 GHz. Built on the Nitro hypervisor, it provides 8.0 GB of RAM, a 3 Gbps baseline network bandwidth, and no local storage. Benchmark results show average single-core CPU performance and strong single-threaded bzip3 decompression, though multi-core and memory bandwidth metrics are limited by the single-vCPU configuration. This instance offers qualitative cost efficiency for lightweight, memory-sensitive workloads that do not require parallel compute resources, making it suitable for small-scale caching, single-threaded data processing, and basic database operations.

      Workload Profiles

      0.16Score
      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.
