RAM Intensive

Tailored for large in-memory datasets and low-latency queries. With a 1:8 vCPU-to-RAM ratio, it provides ample memory per CPU to keep data in memory for fast access, making it ideal for in-memory databases and caches, big JVMs, real-time analytics, stream processing and high-concurrency services. Optimized for workloads where minimizing disk I/O and garbage collection delays is more critical than raw CPU density.

  • Powered by AMD EPYC 7003 (3rd Gen) cores with DDR4 memory, PCIe 4.0, boost clock speed of up to 3.5 GHz AVX2 instructions and SEV/SEV-SNP for improved isolation and reliability.
  • Designed for search clusters, columnar analytics and streaming workloads.
  • Compared to M2a, it improves memory throughput and stability under heavy in-RAM workloads, enabling faster analytics and more reliable service delivery.
  • Maintains consistent performance under heavy in-RAM datasets.
