Summary

We're excited to announce a new technology collaboration with AMD, which is using Redis Enterprise to benchmark Redis database on publicly launched and available AMD EPYCTM 7002 series processor powered systems, and instances in the cloud. The first series of cloud instances tested in this collaboration are the AWS EC2 C5a instances, powered by 2nd generation AMD EPYCTM processors that run at frequencies up to 3.3 GHz, offering up to 192GB of memory. This collaboration aims to demonstrate cost and performance advantages for customers while highlighting how Redis can contribute to benchmarking next-generation cloud infrastructure. The results show exceptional throughput performance and linear scalability among the different instances, making it clear that Redis running on AWS C5a instances can help boost application performance and scale with application growth.
