    Phased-out instance types

    Last Updated: Sep 19, 2018

    This article lists all the phased out instance types.

    sn2, general purpose type family

    Features

    • vCPU : Memory = 1:4
    • 2.5 GHz Intel Xeon, E5-2682 v4 (Broadwell), or E5-2680 v3 (Haswell) processors
    • The network performance of an instance matching the computing type (the more advanced the computing type, the more powerful the network performance)
    • Ideal for:
      • Enterprise-class applications of various types and sizes
      • Medium and small database systems, cache, and search clusters
      • Data analysis and computing
      • Computing clusters, and data processing depending on memory
