Server Description
A dedicated 64-core AMD EPYC compute-optimized instance with a 1:2 CPU-to-memory ratio and 20 Gbps baseline network bandwidth.
Alibaba Cloud ecs.c8a.16xlarge is an x86_64 compute-optimized instance powered by the KVM hypervisor. It features 64 dedicated AMD EPYC 9T24 physical cores running at 2.7 GHz, with a 1:1 thread-to-core ratio that eliminates hyperthreading overhead. The instance is equipped with 128.0 GB of system memory, yielding a 2.0 GB per core ratio, and does not include local storage or GPU accelerators. Network performance is supported by a baseline bandwidth of 20 Gbps. This hardware profile is designed for predictable, high-compute workloads such as batch processing, web serving, and scientific modeling where dedicated CPU resources are prioritized over high memory density.
