c4d-standard-48 by Google Cloud Platform

A dedicated forty-eight core x86_64 virtual machine offering a balanced memory-to-CPU ratio for general-purpose enterprise workloads.

Google Cloud Platform c4d-standard-48 is an x86_64 architecture virtual machine instance configured with 48 dedicated vCPUs and 186.0 GB of system memory. This resource allocation yields a balanced ratio of approximately 3.88 GB of RAM per core, making it suitable for general-purpose and compute-aligned workloads. The instance does not feature bundled local storage or GPU hardware, requiring external network-attached storage for data persistence. With zero complimentary public IPv4 addresses, network configuration must be managed externally. The c4d-standard-48 is designed for multi-threaded applications, web serving, and enterprise workloads that require dedicated CPU resources without the need for specialized hardware acceleration or local NVMe storage. It offers a balanced, qualitative cost-to-resource profile for standard enterprise deployments.
