Server Description
A memory-optimized x86_64 virtual server featuring high memory density and dedicated Intel processing power for memory-bound workloads.
Amazon Web Services r8ib.2xlarge is a memory-optimized instance powered by dedicated Intel x86_64 processors running at 3.9 GHz. Managed by the Nitro hypervisor, it provides 8 vCPUs across 4 physical cores, with 2 threads per core. The instance is equipped with 64.0 GB of RAM, establishing a high memory-to-vCPU ratio of 8.0 GB per vCPU. It does not feature local storage or integrated GPUs, focusing its resource allocation entirely on memory capacity and processing power. Network performance is anchored by an 8 Gbps baseline bandwidth. This configuration is qualitatively cost-efficient for memory-intensive applications that do not require local NVMe storage or hardware acceleration. The r8ib.2xlarge is suited for workloads such as in-memory databases, caching layers, and enterprise applications requiring substantial memory capacity.
