Server Description
An x86_64 compute instance offering seventy-two dedicated virtual cores and a high-density memory configuration of 576 gigabytes.
Google Cloud Platform c4a-highmem-72 is an x86_64 architecture server instance from the c4a family, configured with 72 dedicated vCPUs and 576.0 GB of RAM. This configuration provides a high memory-to-core ratio of 8.0 GB per vCPU, making it suitable for memory-intensive enterprise workloads. The instance does not include integrated GPUs or local storage, meaning all storage needs must be handled via network-attached volumes. It also includes zero complimentary public IPv4 addresses. This resource profile is designed for memory-bound applications, such as large-scale databases, in-memory data stores, and heavy data processing tasks, offering a dense allocation of memory and dedicated compute resources without the added cost of specialized accelerator hardware. The dedicated CPU allocation ensures consistent processing performance, while the lack of bundled local storage and GPUs allows for a streamlined, memory-focused hardware profile.
