Elastic Compute Service:Instance families with local SSDs (i series)

Last Updated:Dec 09, 2024

Instance families with local SSDs (i series) offer CPU-to-memory ratios of 1:4 and 1:8. They are suitable for scenarios such as online transaction processing (OLTP) and high-performance relational databases, NoSQL databases such as Cassandra and MongoDB, search scenarios that use solutions such as Elasticsearch, and E-MapReduce big data scenarios such as storage and computing separation.

Background information

Before you read further in this topic, you must be familiar with the following information:

  • Classification and naming of instance types. Familiarize yourself with the instance family categories, naming conventions of instance types, and differences between instance families. For more information, see Classification and naming of instance types.

  • Instance type metrics. For information about the metrics of instance types, see Instance type metrics.

  • Instructions for selecting instance types based on your business scenarios. For more information, see Instance type selection.

After you determine an instance type for your use case, you may need to learn about the following information:

  • Regions in which the instance type is available for purchase. Instance types that are available for purchase vary based on the region. You can go to the Instance Types Available for Each Region page to view the instance types available for purchase in each region.

  • Estimated instance costs. You can calculate the price of instances that uses different billing methods in the Price Calculator.

  • Instructions for purchasing an instance. You can go to the ECS instance buy page to place a purchase order for instances.

You may be concerned about the following information:

  • Retired instance families. If you cannot find an instance type in this topic, the instance type may be in a retired instance family. For information about retired instance families, see Retired instance families.

  • Supported instance type changes. Before you change the instance type of an instance, check whether the instance type can be changed and identify compatible instance types. For more information, see Instance types and families that support instance type changes.

Not recommended instance families (If the following instance families are sold out, we recommend that you use the instance families in the preceding columns.)

i1, instance family with local SSDs

Overview

Warning

The durability of data stored on a local disk is determined by the reliability of the associated physical machine. The risk of a single point of failure (SPOF) exists. Data stored on local disks may be lost. We recommend that you store only temporary data on local disks. For more information, see Local disks.

Instances equipped with local SSDs provide high I/O performance. The instances are suitable for scenarios that place high demands on storage I/O performance and require a high availability architecture at the application layer. For example, the instances are suitable for NoSQL databases, massively parallel processing (MPP) data warehouses, and distributed file systems.

Instances equipped with local SSDs are suitable for enterprises that provide online services such as online gaming, e-commerce, live video streaming, and media. These instances can satisfy the requirements that I/O-intensive applications have for low latency and high I/O performance of block storage devices.

Instances equipped with local SSDs have the following characteristics:

  • Deliver up to hundreds of thousands of low-latency random read/write IOPS for large databases.

  • Offer a maximum sequential read/write throughput of several gibibytes per second in big data, parallel computing, and other large dataset scenarios.

  • Use local Non-Volatile Memory Express (NVMe) SSDs to deliver hundreds of thousands of random read/write IOPS with single-digit microsecond latency.

When you use instances equipped with local SSDs, take note of the following items:

  • Instances equipped with local SSDs do not support instance configuration changes.

  • Local disks can be tied only to specific instance types. The number and capacity of local disks attached to an instance vary based on the instance type. You cannot separately purchase local disks, or detach local disks from instances and then attach the disks to other instances.

  • You cannot create snapshots for local disks. If you want to create an image from the system disk and data disks of an instance equipped with local SSDs, we recommend that you create an image by combining the snapshots of both the system disk and data disks. In this case, the data disks must be cloud disks.

  • You cannot create images that consist of system disk snapshots and data disk snapshots based on instances equipped with local SSDs.

  • You can attach a standard SSD to an instance equipped with local SSDs and extend the capacity of the standard SSD.

  • Operations on an instance that are equipped with local SSDs may affect the data stored on the local SSDs. For more information, see the Impacts of instance operations on data stored on local disks section of the "Local disks" topic.
