Server Description
An x86_64 memory-optimized instance featuring dedicated Intel Xeon processors and an eight-to-one RAM-to-vCPU ratio for memory-intensive workloads.
Alibaba Cloud ecs.r8i.2xlarge is an x86_64 memory-optimized server instance powered by the KVM hypervisor. It features 8 dedicated vCPUs utilizing an Intel Xeon 8475B processor running at 2.7 GHz, paired with 64.0 GB of RAM. This configuration establishes a high memory-to-vCPU ratio of 8.0 GB per core. The instance does not include local storage, requiring external network-attached storage, and provides a baseline network bandwidth of 6 Gbps. It lacks GPU acceleration and complimentary public IPv4 addresses. Qualitatively, it offers a cost-effective balance for memory-bound tasks by avoiding the expense of excess CPU cores. This resource profile is designed for memory-intensive workloads such as database caching, enterprise applications, and in-memory data processing.
