Server Description
A GPU-accelerated instance featuring dedicated physical cores and an NVIDIA P4 GPU for entry-level parallel processing workloads.
Alibaba Cloud ecs.gn5i-c16g1.4xlarge is a GPU-accelerated instance utilizing the KVM hypervisor and x86_64 architecture. It features 16 dedicated physical CPU cores with a single thread per core, paired with 64.0 GB of system memory. Hardware acceleration is provided by one NVIDIA P4 GPU with 8 GB of VRAM. This instance does not include local storage, requiring network-attached storage solutions, and operates with a baseline network bandwidth of 3 Gbps. Qualitatively, the combination of dedicated CPU resources and a legacy GPU offers a cost-effective entry point for workloads requiring hardware acceleration without the premium cost of newer GPU architectures. It is suited for workloads such as lightweight machine learning inference, video encoding, and graphics processing.
