Server Description
High-density compute instance featuring 192 dedicated x86 cores, 384 GB memory, and 64 Gbps network bandwidth for compute-heavy parallel workloads.
Alibaba Cloud ecs.c8a.48xlarge is a compute-optimized instance built on x86_64 architecture using the KVM hypervisor. Powered by an AMD EPYC 9T24 processor running at 2.7 GHz, it provides 192 dedicated vCPUs alongside 384.0 GB of RAM, yielding a 2.0 GB memory-per-core ratio. The instance lacks local storage and GPU hardware, requiring attached block storage for persistent data. It delivers a network baseline bandwidth of 64 Gbps, facilitating speed for cluster communications and network storage I/O. Without bundled ephemeral disk overhead, the server offers high resource density and qualitative cost efficiency for CPU-heavy processing. This instance is designed for compute-bound execution, including high-performance computing, distributed batch execution, CI/CD build farms, and compute-heavy analytics.
