Server Description
A memory-optimized virtual instance featuring dedicated Intel Xeon processors and high memory density for demanding database and caching workloads.
Alibaba Cloud ecs.r8i.xlarge is a memory-optimized instance featuring 4 dedicated vCPUs and 32.0 GB of RAM, yielding a high memory-to-core ratio of 8.0 GB per vCPU. Powered by an Intel Xeon 8475B processor running at 2.7 GHz on the x86_64 architecture, this KVM-based instance delivers dedicated compute resources. It does not include local storage, relying instead on network-attached storage options, and provides a baseline network bandwidth of 4 Gbps. The absence of integrated GPUs and local storage focuses its value proposition on memory density and dedicated CPU execution. This configuration is qualitatively cost-efficient for memory-bound workloads, allowing users to scale memory capacity without provisioning excess vCPUs. The ecs.r8i.xlarge is suited for database hosting, in-memory caching, and enterprise applications requiring stable performance.
