This page lists instance types for primary ApsaraDB RDS for SQL Server instances, covering current and historical specifications across all RDS editions.
The memory listed for each instance type includes memory consumed by RDS management services, the database engine, and the underlying operating system (BIOS-reserved memory, kernel memory, and hypervisor runtime memory). Available memory is less than the listed capacity.
RDS SQL Server instances that use cloud disks run on Elastic Compute Service (ECS). Performance may vary because different instances can use different ECS instance families.
Standard Edition Basic series instances are available only in regions outside China.
Choose an RDS edition
ApsaraDB RDS for SQL Server is available in three editions. Select the tab for your edition to view its instance types.
| RDS edition | Deployment model | Typical use case |
|---|---|---|
| RDS Cluster Edition | Multi-node cluster with automatic failover | Production workloads requiring high availability and automatic failover |
| RDS High-availability Edition | Primary/standby with automatic failover | General-purpose production databases |
| RDS Basic Edition | Single node, no standby | Development, testing, and cost-sensitive workloads |
Instance family naming conventions
Instance type names encode the CPU-to-memory ratio of the instance:
| Prefix | Memory-to-vCPU ratio | Example |
|---|---|---|
x2 | 2:1 (2 GB per vCPU) | mssql.x2.medium.w1: 2 cores, 4 GB |
x4 | 4:1 (4 GB per vCPU) | mssql.x4.large.e2: 4 cores, 16 GB |
x8 | 8:1 (8 GB per vCPU) | mssql.x8.large.e2: 4 cores, 32 GB |
mem2 | Shared, ~2:1 ratio | mssql.mem2.medium.s2: 2 cores, 4 GB |
mem4 | Shared, ~4:1 ratio | mssql.mem4.medium.e2: 2 cores, 8 GB |
The suffix encodes the RDS edition and SQL Server license type:
.e1/.e2: Enterprise Edition (Basic / High-availability or Cluster).s1/.s2: Standard Edition (Basic / High-availability).w1: Web Edition (Basic)
RDS Cluster Edition
Supported SQL Server versions: SQL Server 2022 Enterprise Edition, 2019 Enterprise Edition, and 2017 Enterprise Edition.
