    CPU and System Topology

    Server Description

    A high-density compute server combining dedicated Intel Xeon processors with fast local NVMe storage for demanding database and inference workloads.

    Compute OptimizedStorage & DatabaseGeneral Purpose

    Google Cloud Platform c4-standard-48-lssd is a compute-focused server featuring 48 dedicated vCPUs powered by an Intel Xeon 6985P-C processor at 2.3 GHz, 180 GB of RAM, and 2951 GB of local NVMe SSD storage. Built on the x86_64 architecture, it includes 504 MB of L3 cache and supports Intel Advanced Matrix Extensions (AMX) and AVX-512. Benchmarks indicate top-tier single-core execution, image processing, and data compression, alongside strong multi-core performance in software compilation and database operations, yielding 89.08 million Redis SET operations per second. The integration of high-speed local storage with dedicated compute resources provides a cost-efficient profile for I/O-intensive workloads without external storage overhead. This instance is optimized for database hosting, CPU-based machine learning inference, and high-throughput web serving.

    Workload Profiles

    3.87Score
    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.
