Server Description
A dedicated twelve-core Intel Xeon server with balanced memory and ten gigabit network bandwidth for predictable general-purpose workloads.
Alibaba Cloud ecs.hfg8i.3xlarge is an x86_64 virtual server powered by the KVM hypervisor and equipped with 12 dedicated physical cores. It utilizes the Intel Xeon 6462C processor running at 3.3 GHz with a single thread per core, ensuring dedicated execution resources without hyperthreading overhead. The instance features 48.0 GB of system memory, establishing a balanced 1:4 vCPU-to-RAM ratio of 4.0 GB per core. It does not include local storage or GPU hardware, relying instead on network-attached storage, and provides a baseline network bandwidth of 10 Gbps. This hardware configuration delivers predictable compute performance and balanced resource density, making it qualitatively cost-effective for production environments. The ecs.hfg8i.3xlarge is suited for general-purpose applications, web serving, containerized microservices, and database workloads requiring stable CPU performance.
