Server Description
A dedicated arm64 instance with a compute-focused resource ratio for lightweight, stateless workloads requiring minimal memory.
Google Cloud Platform n4a-highcpu-1 is an entry-level, compute-optimized virtual machine instance featuring 1 dedicated arm64 vCPU and 2.0 GB of system memory. Part of the n4a server family, this instance is configured with a 1:2 vCPU-to-RAM ratio, prioritizing dedicated processing power over memory capacity. The hardware profile does not include local storage, GPU accelerators, or complimentary public IPv4 addresses, and lacks advanced vector or matrix extensions. The dedicated CPU allocation ensures consistent execution performance for lightweight tasks compared to shared-core alternatives. This instance is suitable for stateless microservices, basic web serving, task queue workers, and simple background processes that operate within a minimal memory footprint.
