Server Description
An arm64 virtual machine with one dedicated vCPU and four gigabytes of memory for lightweight, predictable general-purpose workloads.
Google Cloud Platform c4a-standard-1 is an arm64-based virtual machine instance designed for general-purpose workloads. It features 1 dedicated vCPU and 4.0 GB of system memory, establishing a balanced 1:4 resource ratio. This instance does not include local storage or GPU hardware accelerators, and it is provisioned with zero complimentary public IPv4 addresses. Built on an energy-efficient arm64 architecture, the c4a-standard-1 provides predictable compute performance for entry-level applications. It is qualitatively positioned as a cost-efficient option for workloads that benefit from dedicated CPU resources without the overhead of larger memory footprints or specialized hardware. Appropriate use cases include lightweight microservices, basic web serving, development environments, and simple utility scripts.
