Server Description
A memory-optimized x86_64 instance featuring a high memory-to-vCPU ratio and dedicated Intel processing for memory-intensive workloads.
Amazon Web Services r8in.2xlarge is an x86_64 memory-optimized instance designed for workloads requiring high memory-to-vCPU ratios. Powered by a dedicated Intel processor running at 3.9 GHz, the server provides 8 vCPUs across 4 physical cores and 64.0 GB of system memory, establishing an 8:1 memory-to-vCPU ratio. Operating on the AWS Nitro hypervisor, it delivers a baseline network bandwidth of 12 Gbps and is optimized for EBS storage. The instance lacks local storage and GPU accelerators, representing a tradeoff that prioritizes network-attached storage and memory capacity over local disk speed. This configuration offers qualitative cost efficiency for memory-intensive applications by preventing the over-provisioning of compute resources. It is suited for relational databases, in-memory caches, and enterprise applications.
