    Server Description

    A high-density bare-metal platform combining massive DDR5 memory, local NVMe storage, and top-tier multi-core performance for demanding enterprise databases.

    Memory OptimizedStorage & Database

    Amazon Web Services r8id.metal-48xl is a bare-metal, memory-optimized server featuring 192 dedicated vCPUs powered by Intel Xeon 6975P-C processors running at 3.9 GHz. The system is equipped with 1536.0 GB of high-speed 7 GHz DDR5 memory and 11400 GB of local NVMe SSD storage. It delivers a baseline network bandwidth of 75 Gbps and supports advanced instruction sets like Intel AMX and AVX-512. In benchmark evaluations, the server achieves top-tier multi-core CPU performance, exceptional memory bandwidth, and outstanding database throughput, processing 240.29 million Redis SET operations per second. It also exhibits strong performance in LLM inference tasks for medium and large models. This hardware profile is highly suited for memory-intensive databases, large-scale software compilation, in-memory caching, and data-intensive enterprise workloads.

    Workload Profiles

    8.98Score
    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.
