Cloud server configurations
When creating a cloud server, you can select the number of vCPUs, RAM, local disk size (optional) and add GPUs. Depending on the tasks for which you need a cloud server, you can choose a specific lineup configuration that is suitable for those tasks.
Two types of server configurations are available for all rulers except Shared and Dedicated:
- fixed configurations - configurations of lines with different technical characteristics in which the resource ratio is fixed;
- arbitrary configurations - configurations in which any resource ratio can be specified.
The configurations use different processors depending on the line and pool segment. You can customize the selected configuration. After you create a cloud server, you can change the configuration.
Processors
The linacs differ in the processors available.

10G Net
Dedicated
Processor with DDR4 REG 2450 MHz for cloud servers with dedicated cores.
Processors with DDR4 REG 2133-2633 MHz for configurations without dedicated cores.
Processors with DDR4 REG 2133-2633 MHz and processors with DDR5 REG 3600-4050 MHz.
Processors with DDR4 REG 2250-2433 MHz.
Processor with DDR5 REG 4050 MHz for cloud servers with dedicated cores.
DDR4 REG 3000 MHz processors and DDR5 REG 3100-3750 MHz processors for configurations without dedicated cores.
* When the cloud server load is 100%, the processor is running with Turbo Boost technology and a maximum frequency of 3.60 GHz. Since the processor is emulated, only the 3.00 GHz frequency will be displayed when testing inside the cloud server.
Processor with DDR4 ECC 3200 MHz.
Processor with DDR5 ECC 3200 MHz.
Rulers
To see the availability of configurations in the regions, see the Cloud Servers availability matrix.
You can select the configuration when creating a cloud server in the Control Panel. If you want to create a fixed-configuration cloud server through the OpenStack CLI and Terraform, use the Fixed Configuration Flavor List table in all pools. If fixed configurations are not appropriate, create a flavor.
Depending on the lineup, up to 64 vCPUs, 1000 GB RAM and 2 TB of local disk are available in fixed configurations, and up to 232 vCPUs, 940 GB RAM and 2 TB of local disk are available in random configurations.
Standard
Fixed configuration
Arbitrary configuration
Fixed configurations of the cloud server lineup with balanced vCPU:RAM resource allocation. Suitable for most tasks, such as running code for web services and applications, hosting online stores, and creating test environments.
A local or network boot disk is available in the Standard line.
The lineup includes cloud server configurations with dedicated cores in pool segments ru-3b, ru-7a and ru-7b. Cloud servers with dedicated cores are available from 2 to 32 vCPUs, from 4 GB to 256 GB RAM, from 32 GB to 1 TB of local disk.
For basic cloud servers, 1 to 32 vCPUs, 1 GB to 128 GB RAM, 16 GB to 1.25 TB local disk are available.
In arbitrary configurations, you can select any resource ratio within the available values. The available values depend on the pool segment and the utilization of the allocated cores.
Available resource values for building cloud servers with dedicated cores.
Available resource values for building cloud servers without dedicated cores.
If the configuration has more than 8 vCPUs, the vCPU:RAM ratio must be at least 1:2 and the vCPU:Local Disk ratio must be 1:32. For example, 10 vCPUs requires at least 20 GB of RAM and a disk size of at least 320 GB.
If arbitrary configurations are not suitable, you can order your own configuration. Create a ticket and specify the resource ratio:
- vCPU:RAM - at least 1:2;
- vCPU:RAM:Local disk - at least 1:2:16.
In private pool segments, the limits on arbitrary configurations depend on the pool parameters and the agreed upon number of resources when the service is ordered.
GPU
Fixed configuration
Arbitrary configuration
Fixed cloud server configurations with dedicated GPUs.
Optimized for GPU computing, such as video transcoding, training neural networks, or creating remote workstations.
Available from 4 to 48 vCPUs, 1 to 8 GPUs, 16 GB to 450 GB RAM.
Local or network boot disks are available across the GPU lineup. Only NVIDIA® A100 40Gb, NVIDIA® A100 80Gb, NVIDIA® A30, or NVIDIA® RTX 6000 Ada in the ru-7a and ru-7b pool segment and NVIDIA® A5000 in the uz-2a and kz-1a pool segments can be used for cloud servers with a local disk.
Learn more about dedicated GPUs in the Graphics Processing Units (GPUs) instruction.
In arbitrary configurations, you can select any resource ratio within the available values. The available values depend on the pool segment.
If the configuration has more than 8 vCPUs, the vCPU:RAM ratio must be at least 1:2 and the vCPU:Local Disk ratio must be 1:32. For example, 10 vCPUs requires at least 20 GB of RAM and a disk size of at least 320 GB.
If arbitrary configurations are not suitable, you can order your own configuration. Create a ticket and specify the resource ratio:
- vCPU:RAM - at least 1:2;
- vCPU:RAM:Local disk - at least 1:2:16.
In private pool segments, the limits on arbitrary configurations depend on the pool parameters and the agreed upon number of resources when the service is ordered.
Shared
Fixed cloud server configurations with the ability to use and pay for only a portion of the vCPU.
Shared lineup configurations are less expensive than other lineups and are suitable for tasks that do not require constant and full utilization of the virtual core, such as running staging, a website, bringing up a network, or training.
In the Shared line, a single virtual core can be used by multiple clients. When creating such a configuration, you need to specify the share of vCPU that will be reserved for your server: 10%, 20% or 50%. Cloud server performance will never go below this percentage and may temporarily go up to 100% if other clients are not maximizing resources or a portion of the virtual core is not leased.
Only network boot disks are available in the Shared lineup.
Available from 1 to 4 vCPUs, 512 MB to 8 GB RAM.
Arbitrary configurations are not available.
HighFreq
Fixed configuration
Arbitrary configuration
Fixed configurations of high-performance cloud servers with CPU speeds up to 3.6 GHz and memory speeds up to 3,200 MHz. Suitable for databases such as 1C Bitrix, game servers and other tasks requiring high processing and response speeds.
Local or network boot disks are available in the HighFreq line.
Fixed configurations are available in the lineup to support the operation of cloud servers with dedicated cores in the ru-3b, ru-7a and ru-7b pool segments. Cloud servers with dedicated cores are available from 2 to 64 vCPUs, from 4 GB to 256 GB RAM, from 30 GB to 1 TB of local disk.
For basic cloud servers, 1 to 64 vCPUs, 2 GB to 256 GB RAM, 30 GB to 1.5 TB local disk are available.
In arbitrary configurations, you can select any resource ratio within the available values. The available values depend on the pool segment and the utilization of the allocated cores.
Available resource values for building cloud servers with dedicated cores.
Available resource values for building cloud servers without dedicated cores.
If the configuration has more than 8 vCPUs, the vCPU:RAM ratio must be at least 1:2 and the vCPU:Local Disk ratio must be 1:32. For example, 10 vCPUs requires at least 20 GB of RAM and a disk size of at least 320 GB.
If arbitrary configurations are not suitable, you can order your own configuration. Create a ticket and specify the resource ratio:
- vCPU:RAM - at least 1:2;
- vCPU:RAM:Local disk - at least 1:2:16.
In private pool segments, the limits on arbitrary configurations depend on the pool parameters and the agreed upon number of resources when the service is ordered.
10G Net

List of cloud server lineup flavors
Flavors correspond to cloud server configurations and define the number of vCPUs, RAM, and local disk size (optional) of the server.
Flavor IDs or names are used to create cloud servers through the OpenStack CLI and Terraform. The IDs differ between pools.
For example, 1015 is the ID and SL1.4-16384 is the name of the flavor, which corresponds to a fixed Standard line configuration with 4 vCPUs, 16GB RAM in a ru-9 pool.
If a fixed lineup configuration flavor with the right number of vCPUs, RAM, and local disk size is not available, you can create a flavor.
You can view a list of fixed-configuration flavors in all pools in the table or view a list of all configuration flavors in a specific pool through the OpenStack CLI.
