      Server Description

      An arm64 memory-optimized instance delivering high memory bandwidth and dedicated physical cores for intensive database and caching workloads.

      Memory OptimizedGeneral Purpose

      Amazon Web Services x8g.16xlarge is an arm64 memory-optimized instance featuring 64 dedicated physical cores powered by AWS Graviton Neoverse-V2 processors running at 2.8 GHz. It is equipped with 1024.0 GB of RAM, providing a high memory-to-core ratio of 16.0 GB per core, alongside a 30 Gbps baseline network bandwidth. The instance does not include local storage or GPUs. Benchmark results indicate top-tier memory bandwidth, with uncached read speeds of 456.97 GB/sec, and strong multi-core performance, highlighted by a Geekbench multi-core score of 25533.0. Database and caching performance are also top-tier, with Redis SET operations reaching 132.1 million operations per second. This profile makes the instance highly efficient for memory-intensive workloads such as in-memory databases, Redis caching, software compilation, and high-throughput web serving, offering a strong balance of memory density and multi-core processing without the overhead of simultaneous multithreading.

      Workload Profiles

      4.88Score
      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.
