Server Description
A general-purpose instance offering 64 vCPUs and 256 GB RAM for enterprise web serving, microservice architectures, and containerized workloads.
Alibaba Cloud ecs.g6a.16xlarge is a general-purpose cloud instance built on the x86_64 architecture and powered by dedicated AMD EPYC 7H12 processors operating at 2.6 GHz. Configured with 64 vCPUs and 256 GB of RAM, it maintains a standard 1:4 resource ratio offering 4 GB of memory per core. Operating under a KVM hypervisor, the instance delivers a baseline network speed of 16 Gbps without bundled local storage or public IPv4 addresses. The absence of local disk storage means persistent data relies on external cloud block storage volumes, trading local disk I/O for scalable persistent storage configurations. The high vCPU core density and balanced memory allocation provide resource consolidation and cost efficiency for large multi-threaded application environments. This instance is suited for enterprise web serving, container clusters, integration pipelines, and general middle-tier application workloads requiring parallel core execution.
