CPU and System Topology
Server Description
A high-density memory and storage server featuring 176 vCPUs, 1.4 TB RAM, and 38 TB of local NVMe SSD capacity.
Google Cloud Platform z3-highmem-176-standardlssd is a memory-optimized and storage-intensive server designed for high-density enterprise workloads. It features 176 vCPUs from an Intel Xeon 8481C processor running at 2.7 GHz, paired with 1408.0 GB of RAM and 38,652 GB of local NVMe SSD storage. While single-core performance sits in the average tier, the server delivers top-tier multi-core CPU performance and memory bandwidth, supported by advanced instruction sets like AVX-512 and Intel AMX. This hardware profile makes the instance highly efficient for memory-heavy and storage-intensive applications without requiring GPU acceleration. It is best suited for large-scale databases, in-memory data stores, high-throughput web serving, and multi-threaded data processing.
