ecs.r9i.8xlarge by Alibaba Cloud

A memory-optimized x86 server featuring dedicated Intel Xeon processors and high memory density for demanding enterprise workloads.

Alibaba Cloud ecs.r9i.8xlarge is a memory-optimized server instance designed for memory-intensive enterprise workloads. Running on the KVM hypervisor, it features 32 dedicated vCPUs mapped to 32 physical cores of an Intel Xeon 6982P-C processor running at 3.2 GHz. The instance is configured with 256.0 GB of RAM, providing a high resource density of 8.0 GB per core. It does not include local storage or GPU hardware, relying instead on network-attached storage and a baseline network bandwidth of 20 Gbps. This hardware profile offers a qualitative cost-efficient balance for memory-bound applications that do not require local disk performance or hardware acceleration. The ecs.r9i.8xlarge is suited for in-memory databases, large-scale caching, and enterprise application hosting.
