OCI Compute Shapes Unleash Cloud Efficiency with AMD EPYC

Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Compute E6 Shapes Provide Groundbreaking Cloud Performance and Efficiency with 5th Gen AMD EPYC CPUs

OCI testing shows that OCI Compute E6 forms can give a 2X cost-to-performance improvement over E5 instances to 5th Gen AMD EPYC processors, the leading server CPUs for corporate, AI, and cloud

Based on the success of the E5 generation, the new OCI Compute E6 forms offer cost-effectiveness and leadership performance for compute-intensive, general-purpose applications

E6 Standard bare metal instances handle high-throughput, computationally intensive applications. Each instance features 200 Gbps networking, 3 TB memory, and 256 cores

E6 Standard offers up to a 50% increase in price-performance for virtual machines and a 225% price-performance gain for bare metal instances when compared to E5 Standard

E6 Standard has a memory bandwidth of 6400MHz, which is 45% more than E5 Standard, and a 33% larger L3 cache (512 MB)

The number of OCPUs, RAM, and other resources allotted to an instance are determined by a template called a shape

Oracle calculates resource pricing differently. For x86 (AMD and Intel) and Arm (OCI Ampere Compute) CPUs, the Oracle CPU (OCPU) represents genuine CPU cores
