Server Description
A dedicated dual-core x86_64 instance featuring high memory density for memory-bound workloads without unnecessary compute overhead.
Google Cloud Platform c4n-highmem-2 is an x86_64 architecture server instance within the c4n family, configured with 2 dedicated vCPUs and 15.0 GB of system memory. This resource allocation provides a high memory-to-core ratio of 7.5 GB per vCPU, making it suitable for memory-intensive tasks that do not require extensive parallel compute resources. The instance does not include local storage or integrated GPU accelerators, requiring network-attached storage for data persistence. With dedicated CPU allocation, it delivers predictable performance, avoiding the resource sharing of burstable instances. This configuration offers a cost-efficient profile for workloads that benefit from higher memory density without the added expense of extra vCPUs. It is suited for small databases, caching layers, and memory-bound application servers.
