Standard Instance
Designed for general-purpose applications that require reliable performance and cost efficiency. With a 1:4 vCPU-to-RAM ratio, it provides the right balance between CPU and memory for workloads with moderate compute and memory demands, where steady throughput and predictable performance are important. Optimized for small-to-medium databases, app servers and SaaS control planes.
- Powered by AMD EPYC 9004 (4th Gen) cores with DDR5 memory, PCIe 5.0, CXL 1.1 and boost clock speed of up to 3.75 GHz for faster I/O and memory expansion.
- Handles production web tiers and medium databases that need low latency.
- Compared to S3a, it enables faster I/O, compute acceleration and quicker response times for business-critical applications.
- Includes AVX-512 and VNNI instructions for accelerated processing compared to previous generations.
