Server Description
A GPU-accelerated virtual server featuring dedicated Intel Xeon processors, high-capacity system memory, and an NVIDIA L20 GPU for parallel computing.
Alibaba Cloud ecs.gn8is.4xlarge is a GPU-accelerated instance designed for memory-intensive parallel computing workloads. Powered by the KVM hypervisor, it features 16 dedicated vCPUs from an Intel Xeon 6462C processor running at 3.3 GHz on the x86_64 architecture. The system is configured with 128.0 GB of RAM, establishing an 8.0 GB per vCPU ratio. Graphics and compute acceleration are handled by a single NVIDIA L20 GPU based on the Ada Lovelace architecture, providing 48 GB of VRAM. The instance lacks local storage, relying entirely on network-attached storage, and provides a baseline network bandwidth of 16 Gbps. This hardware configuration is optimized for workloads such as machine learning inference, data science, and GPU-assisted rendering where high VRAM and dedicated CPU resources are required without the need for local high-speed disk arrays.
