Server Description
A memory-optimized virtual server with dedicated dual-core processing and sixteen gigabytes of RAM for consistent, memory-intensive workloads.
Alibaba Cloud ecs.s2.2xlarge is an x86_64 virtual server built on the KVM hypervisor, featuring 2 dedicated vCPUs across 2 physical cores with hyperthreading disabled. It provides 16.0 GB of system memory, establishing an 8.0 GB memory-to-core ratio. The instance lacks local storage, requiring network-attached storage, and contains no GPU accelerators or complimentary public IPv4 addresses. Hardware-level instruction sets such as AVX, AVX-512, AMX, and AES are not available on this instance type. Given its dedicated CPU allocation and high memory density relative to its processing cores, the ecs.s2.2xlarge is designed for memory-optimized workloads. It is best suited for applications requiring consistent CPU performance and a larger memory footprint, such as small database deployments, in-memory caching, and general-purpose business applications that do not rely on advanced vector or cryptographic instructions.
