    Server Description

    A bare-metal, memory-optimized platform featuring high-speed DDR5 RAM, massive local NVMe storage, and top-tier multi-core processing power.

    Memory OptimizedStorage & DatabaseCompute Optimized

    Amazon Web Services r8id.metal-48xl is a memory-optimized bare-metal server designed for resource-intensive workloads. It features 192 vCPUs on 96 physical Intel Xeon 6975P-C cores running at 3.9 GHz, paired with 1536.0 GB of high-speed DDR5 memory and 11400 GB of local NVMe SSD storage. The x86_64 architecture includes advanced instruction sets like Intel AMX and AVX-512, driving top-tier multi-core CPU and memory bandwidth performance. Operating with a 75 Gbps baseline network bandwidth, this bare-metal instance delivers exceptional throughput for data-heavy applications. It is highly optimized for large-scale in-memory databases, Redis deployments, complex multi-threaded data processing, and LLM inference workloads.

    Workload Profiles

    8.6Score
    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.
