compute engine guides send feedback machine families resource and comparison guide stay organized with collections save and categorize content based on your preferences this document describes the machine families machine series and machine types that you can choose from to create a virtual machine vm instance or bare metal instance with the resources that you need for accelerator optimized machines this document describes only graphics processing unit gpu accelerators for information about machine types that contain google s custom developed tensor processing units tpus see tpu machines there are several machine families you can choose from each machine family is further organized into machine series and predefined machine types within each series for example within the n2 machine series in the general purpose machine family you can select the n2 standard 4 machine type when you create a compute instance you select a machine type from a machine family and series the machine type determines the resources that compute engine allocates to the instance for example the n2 standard 4 machine type creates a vm with 4 vcpus and 16 gb of memory for information about machine series that support spot vms and preemptible vms see compute engine instances provisioning models note this is a list of compute engine machine families for a detailed explanation of each machine family see the following pages general purpose best price performance ratio for a variety of workloads storage optimized best for workloads that are low in core usage and high in storage density compute optimized designed for high performance computing hpc solutions and compute intensive workloads offers high performance per core on compute engine network optimized purpose built for io intensive workloads that require high network bandwidth superior packet processing performance and superior block storage throughput and iops per vcpu memory optimized ideal for memory intensive workloads offering more memory per core than other machine families with up to 12 tb of memory accelerator optimized ideal for massively parallelized compute unified device architecture cuda compute workloads such as machine learning ml and high performance computing hpc this family is the best option for workloads that require accelerators gpus or tpus compute engine terminology this documentation uses the following terms machine family a curated set of processor and hardware configurations optimized for specific workloads for example general purpose accelerator optimized or memory optimized machine series machine families are further classified by series generation and processor type each series focuses on a different aspect of computing power or performance for example the e series offers efficient vms at a low cost while the c series offers better performance the generation is denoted by an ascending number for example the n1 series within the general purpose machine family is the older version of the n2 series a higher generation or series number usually indicates newer underlying cpu platforms or technologies for example the m3 series which runs on intel xeon scalable processor 3rd generation ice lake is a newer generation than the m2 series which runs on intel xeon scalable processor 2nd generation cascade lake generation intel amd arm 4th generation machine series n4 c4 c4n x4 m4 m4n a4 c4d g4 n4d h4d n4a c4a a4x max a4x 3rd generation machine series c3 h3 z3 m3 a3 c3d n a 2nd generation machine series n2 e2 c2 m2 a2 g2 n2d c2d t2d e2 t2a machine type every machine series offers at least one machine type each machine type provides a set of resources for your compute instance such as vcpus memory disks and gpus if a predefined machine type does not meet your needs you can also create a custom machine type for some machine series the following sections describe the different machine types predefined machine types predefined machine types come with a non modifiable amount of memory and vcpus predefined machine types use a variety of vcpu to memory ratios highcpu from 1 to 3 gb memory per vcpu typically 2 gb memory per vcpu standard from 3 to 7 gb memory per vcpu typically 4 gb memory per vcpu highmem from 7 to 12 gb memory per vcpu typically 8 gb memory per vcpu megamem from 12 to 15 gb memory per vcpu typically 14 gb memory per vcpu ultramem from 24 to 31 gb memory per vcpu hypermem from 15 to 24 gb memory per vcpu typically 16 gb memory per vcpu for example a c3 standard 22 machine type has 22 vcpus and as a standard machine type it also has 88 gb of memory local ssd machine types local ssd machine types are special predefined machine types the machine type names include lssd when you create a compute instance using one of the following machine types titanium ssd or local ssd disks are automatically attached to the instance lssd available with the c4 c4a c4d c4n preview c3 c3d and h4d machine series these machine types attach a predetermined number of 375 gib titanium ssd or local ssd disks to the instance examples of this machine type include c4a standard 4 lssd c3 standard 88 lssd and c3d highmem 360 lssd standardlssd available with the storage optimized z3 machine series these machine types provide up to 350 gib of titanium ssd disk capacity per vcpu these machine types are recommended for high performance search and data analysis for medium sized data sets an example of this machine type is z3 highmem 22 standardlssd highlssd available with the z3 machine series these machine types provide between 350 gib and 600 gib of titanium ssd disk capacity per vcpu these machine types offer high performance and are recommended for storage intensive streaming and data analysis for large sized data
