c4n-highcpu-48 by Google Cloud Platform

A dedicated x86_64 compute-optimized instance featuring forty-eight vCPUs and a lean two gigabytes of memory per core.

Google Cloud Platform c4n-highcpu-48 is an x86_64 compute-optimized server instance configured with 48 dedicated vCPUs and 96.0 GB of RAM. This resource allocation provides a lean 2.0 GB of memory per core, making it highly efficient for CPU-bound tasks that do not require massive memory footprints. The instance does not include local storage or GPU accelerators, and it comes with zero complimentary public IPv4 addresses. This hardware profile is optimized for parallel processing workloads, high-performance web serving, and batch computing where processing density is prioritized over memory capacity. The dedicated CPU allocation ensures consistent performance without resource contention, making it a reliable choice for compute-intensive deployments. The lack of local storage requires reliance on network-attached storage, which is a key architectural consideration for data-intensive operations.
