BCS compute-optimized c2a instances released
The following announcement for c2a instances was written based on information available in September 2023. For the latest instance types and attributes of KakaoCloud Beyond Compute Service, see Compute-optimized instances.
Hello, we are sharing the release of KakaoCloud's compute-optimized instances.
The newly released compute-optimized instance family from KakaoCloud is the c2a family, equipped with 3rd Gen AMD EPYC 7003 series 7643 processors that run at frequencies up to 3.6 GHz.
c2a instances are designed for compute-intensive workloads that require high-performance compute specifications, with a 1:2 vCPU-to-memory ratio. They provide up to 96 vCPUs and up to 192 GB of memory, and support high network bandwidth of up to 25 Gbps.
Compared with existing general-purpose instances, c2a instances can be a cost-effective option for compute-intensive workloads. They can be used broadly for latency-sensitive workloads, batch processing workloads, media transcoding, high-performance web servers, high-performance computing (HPC), scientific modeling, dedicated game server and ad server engines, and many other applications that require high-performance compute capabilities.
Detailed specifications and pricing for c2a instances are as follows.
- Processor: 3rd Gen AMD EPYC 7003 series 7643
- Frequency: Up to 3.6 GHz
- vCPU count: Up to 96
- Memory: Up to 192 GB
- Network bandwidth: Up to 25 Gbps
