Server Description
An arm64 virtual machine featuring eight dedicated vCPUs and a compute-optimized memory ratio for efficient parallel processing.
Google Cloud Platform n4a-highcpu-8 is an arm64-based virtual machine instance from the n4a family, configured with 8 dedicated vCPUs and 16.0 GB of RAM. This allocation yields a 1:2 vCPU-to-RAM ratio, positioning the instance for compute-intensive workloads that require minimal memory overhead. The server does not include local storage or GPU accelerators, meaning all storage requirements must be met via network-attached block storage. Additionally, it does not feature complimentary public IPv4 addresses. The arm64 architecture offers qualitative cost efficiency and high resource density for ARM-native applications. This instance is suitable for web serving, containerized microservices, CI/CD build pipelines, and lightweight application servers.
