Server Description
A high-density compute instance featuring 128 dedicated AMD EPYC vCPUs and 64 Gbps network bandwidth for parallel processing workloads.
Alibaba Cloud ecs.c8ae.32xlarge is a compute-optimized x86_64 server instance powered by the KVM hypervisor. It features 128 dedicated AMD EPYC 9T34 vCPUs running at 3.4 GHz and 256.0 GB of RAM, establishing a 2.0 GB memory-per-core ratio. The instance lacks local storage, requiring external network-attached storage solutions, but provides a baseline network bandwidth of 64 Gbps. This hardware configuration is designed for high-density compute workloads where raw processing power is prioritized over memory capacity. The absence of local storage and the low memory-to-vCPU ratio represent clear tradeoffs, making the instance highly cost-efficient for CPU-bound tasks but less suitable for memory-intensive databases. It is best utilized for batch processing, video encoding, and parallel scientific simulations.
