Server Description
A high-density compute instance featuring ninety-six dedicated AMD EPYC cores and thirty-two Gigabits per second network bandwidth for CPU-bound workloads.
Alibaba Cloud ecs.c8a.24xlarge is a compute-optimized virtual machine instance featuring 96 dedicated vCPUs powered by AMD EPYC 9T24 processors running at 2.7 GHz on the x86_64 architecture. Built on the KVM hypervisor, the instance provides 192.0 GB of system memory, establishing a 2.0 GB per vCPU ratio. It delivers a baseline network bandwidth of 32 Gbps but does not include local storage or integrated GPUs, requiring external block storage for data persistence. This hardware profile is designed for high-density CPU workloads where memory-to-core ratios are kept low to optimize compute resource allocation. The ecs.c8a.24xlarge is suited for compute-intensive applications, including batch processing, large-scale web serving, and distributed compilation pipelines.
