r5n Family :
Amazon EC2 R5 instances are suited for memory-intensive workloads like high-performance databases, large-scale distributed in-memory caches, mid-sized in-memory databases, real-time big data analytics, and other enterprise applications. The R5n and R5dn variants, offering higher bandwidth, are optimal for tasks benefiting from enhanced network throughput and packet performance.
Features
Features 2nd generation Intel Xeon Scalable Processors (Cascade Lake 8259CL) with a sustained all-core Turbo frequency of 3.1 GHz and a peak single-core Turbo frequency of 3.5 GHz
Includes support for Intel’s new Vector Neural Network Instructions (AVX-512 VNNI), enhancing machine learning tasks such as convolution and improving inference performance across various deep learning applications
Offers up to 25 Gbps of peak network bandwidth on smaller instance sizes
Provides up to 100 Gbps of network bandwidth on the largest instance size
Requires HVM AMIs with drivers for Enhanced Networking Adapter (ENA) and NVMe
Utilizes the AWS Nitro System, combining dedicated hardware with a lightweight hypervisor
Storage options include Amazon EBS or locally attached NVMe SSDs on the host server
R5dn instances come with locally attached NVMe SSDs that offer block-level storage for the duration of the instance's lifecycle
