An Elastic Compute Service (ECS) instance is a virtual server and the smallest computing service unit in the cloud. An instance type essentially determines the hardware of the host computer used for your instance. Each instance type offers different compute and memory capabilities. This topic describes all ECS instance families available for purchase and introduces their features, specifications, and use scenarios.
Enterprise scenarios require high business stability. Alibaba Cloud ECS instance families are categorized into enterprise-level and shared instance families based on whether the instance families are suitable for enterprise scenarios. Enterprise-level instance families offer consistent performance and dedicated resources. In enterprise-level instance families, each vCPU of x86-based instance types corresponds to a hyperthread of a processor core, whereas each vCPU of ARM-based instance types corresponds to a physical processor core. For more information about the differences between enterprise-level and shared instance families, see Instance FAQ.
You can upgrade or downgrade instance types within the same instance family or across different instance families. For more information, see Instance families that support instance type changes.
For information about how to choose instance families based on scenarios, see Best practices for instance type selection.
ECS instance families are categorized into the following categories based on their system architecture and use scenarios.

- The GPU column in the preceding table indicates the GPU model and GPU slicing information for each instance type. Each GPU can be sliced into multiple GPU partitions, and each GPU partition can be assigned as a vGPU to an instance. Example:
NVIDIA T4 GPU * 1/4
.NVIDIA T4
is the GPU model.1/4
indicates that a GPU is sliced into four GPU partitions, and each GPU partition is assigned as a vGPU to an instance. - You can go to the ECS Instance Types Available for Each Region page to view the instance types available in each region.
