| Table / View | Contents |
|---|
<cloud>_all | Every instance type of that cloud. All five tables share an identical 27-column schema, so clouds are directly comparable, e.g. select * from aws_all union all select * from gcp_all. |
<cloud> | Comparable slice: current-generation, priced, non-burstable, non-accelerator, non-metal instances ("strange instances" dropped). |
<cloud>_family | One representative instance per family (not available for GCP). |
<cloud>_accel | GPU/accelerator instances. |
<cloud>_burst | Burstable / shared-core instances (vcpus_base < vcpus). |
benchmark | SPEC CPU results for AWS instances: instance, benchmark, value. |
| Column | Description |
|---|
instance | Full instance name (e.g. c7g.medium) |
family | Instance family (name prefix before the size, e.g. c7g) |
category | Provider's instance category (e.g. General purpose, Compute optimized) |
price_hour | Linux on-demand price per hour in USD (reference region) |
ram_gib | Main memory in GiB |
vcpus | Number of vCPUs (hyperthreads) |
vcpus_base | Baseline vCPUs; burstable/shared-core instances run below vcpus, equals vcpus otherwise |
cores | Number of physical cores |
processor_model | Processor model (granularity varies by cloud) |
arch | Processor architecture (x86_64, arm64) |
net_gbitps | Baseline network bandwidth in Gbit/s |
net_peak_gbitps | Peak (burst) network bandwidth in Gbit/s |
storage_gb | Total local instance storage in GB |
storage_count | Number of local storage devices |
storage_is_ssd | Whether local storage is SSD |
storage_is_nvme | Whether local storage is NVMe |
ebs_iops | Baseline remote block storage (EBS-style) IOPS |
ebs_gbitps | Baseline remote block storage bandwidth in Gbit/s |
ebs_peak_iops | Maximum (burst) remote block storage IOPS |
ebs_peak_gbitps | Maximum (burst) remote block storage bandwidth in Gbit/s |
accelerators | Number of attached accelerators (GPU/FPGA/...) |
accelerator_model | Accelerator model |
accelerator_gib | Total accelerator memory in GiB |
is_current | Whether this is a current-generation instance type |
storage_read_iops | Local-storage random read IOPS |
storage_write_iops | Local-storage random write IOPS |
release_year | Release date as a fractional year, year + (month-1)/12 |
