Server Description
A high-density compute instance featuring 128 dedicated physical AMD EPYC cores and 40 Gbps baseline network bandwidth.
Alibaba Cloud ecs.c8a.32xlarge is an x86_64 compute-optimized instance designed for high-performance workloads. Powered by KVM virtualization, it features 128 dedicated AMD EPYC 9T24 physical cores running at 2.7 GHz with a 1.0 thread-per-core configuration. The instance provides 256.0 GB of system memory, yielding a 2.0 GB per core ratio. It does not include local storage or GPU accelerators, relying instead on network-attached storage. Network performance is supported by a baseline bandwidth of 40 Gbps. This resource allocation makes the instance highly suitable for compute-intensive tasks such as batch processing, scientific simulations, and large-scale compilation where dedicated CPU execution is critical and memory requirements are moderate.
