NVMe disk for bandwidth

Unlike standard SSD disks, NVMe (Non-Volatile Memory Express) drives use NAND flash memory cells to store data. With their PCI Express connectors, which until recently were only used by devices like graphic cards, the bottleneck created by the SATA connection is cleared.

Standardized APIs

Use Kubernetes for container orchestration with tools like Kubectl to manage your cloud resources, allowing you to program your cloud resources using the tools that best suit your needs.

Use cases

Distributed databases

Databases are often optimized to use a large amount of memory, reducing disk access as a result. These instances offer better conditions for faster query execution on a MySQL/Galera or MongoDB engine, for example.

Advanced scientific computing

Carry out complex, scientific analyses to get data or conclusions in record time (healthcare, scientific research, or aerospace).

Useful commands

Boot your instance
openstack server create --flavor r3-64-flex --image debian server01

Resize your instance
openstack server resize --flavor r3-256-flex --confirm server01

Pricing Public Cloud

Billing for Memory Optimized instances

These instances are billed like all of our other instances, on a pay-as-you-go basis at the end of each month. The price depends on the size of the instance you have booted and the duration of its use.

Why choose OVHcloud for your Memory Optimized instances?

Our vRack private network interconnects our various solutions, to help ensure the security of your data and applications. Our cloud is sovereign, accessible, and compliant for storing, processing, analyzing, and manipulating your data.

Your questions answered

What is the difference between the r2 and r3 ranges?

The r2 instances correspond to our legacy instances. They are based on Intel processors, while our r3 instances are part of our latest range that are based on AMD processors. Our latest r3 range offers improved network performance.

Can I migrate my current r2 instance to a new r3 instance?

Yes, you can migrate your r2 instance to one from our latest range. The size of the destination model’s disk, must be equal to or larger than the size of the source model. In addition, your target instance must have at least the same storage capacity as your current instance.

How do I migrate my r2 instance to an r3 instance?

To migrate your r2 instance to an r3 instance, you will need to edit your instance and change your model.
Changing your model may result in server downtime for a few minutes. Server downtime duration may vary depending on the model. In some cases, this may take more than an hour. It is recommended that you back up your instance before changing it. You will be able to restore your backup using the original model if you encounter any problems after the change.

Can I integrate a Memory Optimized instance into the OVHcloud virtual private network (vRack)?

Yes, you can integrate an instance into the vRack network.

Can an IPv6 address be used in these instances?

Yes, an IPv6 address is assigned for each instance that uses a public network interface.
