Server Description
A high-capacity general-purpose instance with 72 dedicated x86_64 vCPUs, 288 GB memory, and 33 Gbps network bandwidth for enterprise applications.
Alibaba Cloud ecs.g5ne.18xlarge is a general-purpose virtual instance running on the KVM hypervisor. Powered by an Intel Xeon 8163 processor clocked at 2.5 GHz, the instance delivers 72 dedicated x86_64 vCPUs along with 288.0 GB of memory. This configuration maintains a standard 1:4 vCPU-to-RAM ratio of 4.0 GB per core. The instance includes no local SSD storage and zero GPU accelerators, making it reliant on external network volumes for persistent storage. To prevent network bottlenecks when interfacing with remote block storage and external services, the architecture provides a baseline network bandwidth of 33 Gbps. The high core density and balanced resource distribution offer a cost-effective hardware foundation for enterprise microservice architectures, web serving layers, build systems, and distributed application workloads.
