c6, compute optimized instance family
Features
- Provides predictable and stable high performance and can reduce virtualization overheads with the use of the X-Dragon architecture
- I/O optimized
- Supports enhanced SSDs, standard SSDs, and ultra disks
Note The maximum performance of cloud disks varies depending on instance families. A single c6 instance can deliver an IOPS of up to 200,000. For higher storage I/O performance, we recommend that you use g5se. For more information, see g5se, storage optimized instance family with enhanced performance.
- Provides strong storage I/O performance with a large computing capacity
- Supports enabling or disabling Hyper-Threading
Note By default, Hyper-Threading is enabled on ECS instances. For more information, see Customize CPU options.
- CPU-to-memory ratio of 1:2
- Ultra high packet forwarding rate
- Equipped with 2.5 GHz Intel ® Xeon ® Platinum 8269CY (Cascade Lake) processors, up to 3.2 GHz Turbo Boost
- Provides strong network performance with a large computing capacity
- Supports instance type changes to g6 or r6
- Suitable for the following scenarios:
- Scenarios where large volumes of packets are received and transmitted, such as on-screen video comments and telecom data forwarding
- Web frontend servers
- Frontend servers of massive multiplayer online (MMO) games
- Data analysis, batch compute, and video encoding
- High-performance science and engineering applications
