    CPU and System Topology

    Server Description

    A memory-intensive server featuring high RAM density, local NVMe storage, and strong multi-core performance for enterprise database workloads.

    Memory OptimizedStorage & Database

    Amazon Web Services x2iedn.16xlarge is a memory-optimized instance featuring 64 vCPUs from an Intel Xeon 8375C processor, 2048 GB of DDR4 RAM, and a 1900 GB local NVMe SSD. Operating on the Nitro hypervisor, it delivers a baseline network bandwidth of 50 Gbps. Benchmark results show strong multi-core capabilities, with a PassMark CPU score of 56,826.42 and strong database operations performance. However, single-core CPU benchmarks and memory bandwidth remain in the average tier. The high memory density of 32 GB per physical core provides qualitative cost efficiency for memory-bound applications, allowing organizations to run large-scale databases without over-provisioning compute resources. This server is suited for in-memory databases, large-scale data analytics, and memory-intensive enterprise workloads.

    Workload Profiles

    2.72Score
    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.
