what: Virtual machines and bare metal instances. Flexible shapes allow custom
OCPU/memory ratios. AMD, Intel, and Arm options available.
shape_families:
- name: VM.Standard.E5.Flex
processor: "AMD EPYC 9J14 (Genoa)"
max_ocpu: 94
memory_per_ocpu_gb: "1-64 GB per OCPU"
use_for: "General purpose, most workloads"
- name: VM.Standard3.Flex
processor: "Intel Xeon (Ice Lake)"
max_ocpu: 32
memory_per_ocpu_gb: "1-64 GB per OCPU"
use_for: "Intel-optimized workloads"
- name: VM.Standard.A2.Flex
processor: "Ampere Altra (Arm)"
max_ocpu: 80
memory_per_ocpu_gb: "1-64 GB per OCPU"
use_for: "Arm-compatible workloads, cost optimization"
- name: VM.Optimized3.Flex
processor: "Intel Xeon (Ice Lake)"
max_ocpu: 18
memory_per_ocpu_gb: "1-64 GB per OCPU"
use_for: "High-frequency trading, HPC"
- name: VM.GPU.A10.1
processor: "NVIDIA A10"
gpu_count: 1
use_for: "AI/ML inference, GPU workloads"
- name: BM.GPU.H100.8
processor: "NVIDIA H100 (8 GPUs)"
gpu_count: 8
use_for: "AI/ML training, large model inference"
when_to_use:
- Traditional VM-based applications
- Applications not suited for containers
- Database clients and application servers
- Bastion hosts and jump boxes
- GPU workloads (AI/ML, rendering)
when_NOT_to_use:
- Containerized microservices (use OKE)
- Serverless event-driven workloads (use Functions)
- Managed database workloads (use ADB/DBCS)
features:
flexible_shapes: true
burstable: "Burstable instances available (VM.Standard.E5.Flex.Burstable)"
preemptible: "Preemptible instances at reduced cost"
dedicated_hosts: true
live_migration: true
boot_volume_backup: true
instance_pools: true
autoscaling: "Instance pool autoscaling"
pricing:
model: per_ocpu_per_hour
e5_flex_per_ocpu: 0.0230
