      CPU and System Topology

      Server Description

      A balanced x86_64 virtual machine featuring dedicated AMD EPYC processors and 64 GB RAM for predictable general-purpose compute workloads.

      General Purpose

      Alibaba Cloud ecs.g8a.4xlarge is an x86_64 general-purpose instance powered by a dedicated 16-core AMD EPYC 9T24 processor running at 2.7 GHz. It features 64.0 GB of RAM, translating to 4.0 GB per core, and operates on the KVM hypervisor. This instance does not include local storage or GPU accelerators, but provides a baseline network bandwidth of 7 Gbps. Benchmark data highlights strong single-core CPU performance, alongside average multi-core and memory bandwidth capabilities. The processor supports advanced instruction sets such as AVX-512 and VNNI. Given its balanced resource allocation and dedicated CPU execution, the ecs.g8a.4xlarge is suited for workloads such as web serving, database operations, and general-purpose enterprise applications.
