CPU Intensive
Designed for CPU-bound tasks where core performance and clock speed are critical. With a 1:2 vCPU-to-RAM ratio, it delivers the processing power needed when threads are heavily utilized while keeping memory sufficient for moderate workloads. Ideal for CI/CD pipelines, media transcoding, scientific computing, high QPS API gateways, search indexing and compression/crypto operations.
- Runs on AMD EPYC 7003 (3rd Gen) cores with DDR4 memory, PCIe 4.0, boost clock speed of up to 3.5 GHz.
- Manages multi-job pipelines, batch processing and autoscaled CPU workloads.
- Compared to C2a, it delivers more consistent high-throughput performance for multi-job pipelines and stateless services, improving CPU utilization and reducing processing delays.
- Offers improved efficiency and workload handling over previous generation.
