GPC // General Purpose Compute

Our 3rd generation, Pay As You Go Virtual Data Center is part of Cloud Propeller’s General Purpose Compute platform, delivering reliable, enterprise-grade infrastructure for cost-sensitive workloads, while the usage-based model allows clients to scale up or down without paying for unused capacity.

This platform runs on Intel® Xeon® Gold 6246R CPUs, DDR4 ECC memory, and HPE Alletra all-flash NVMe storage, providing strong and consistent performance for the vast majority of production use cases.

Clients are billed using a usage-based model, with resource consumption measured every 5 minutes. While invoices are issued monthly, usage is calculated with high precision, enabling modern hourly-style billing without rounding surprises.

Even in our Pay As You Go model, we design our infrastructure conservatively. We never provision any of our clusters beyond 50% utilization, ensuring ample headroom for scaling and eliminating noisy-neighbor impact.

Our 3rd generation Virtual Data Center with Dedicated Capacity is part of Cloud Propeller’s General Purpose Compute platform, designed for organizations that prefer reserved capacity and predictable monthly costs for steady-state, general-purpose enterprise workloads.

This platform runs on Intel® Xeon® Gold 6246R CPUs, DDR4 ECC memory, and HPE Alletra all-flash NVMe storage, delivering reliable performance with an excellent price-to-performance balance.

In the Dedicated model, CPU, memory, and storage resources are pre-allocated and reserved for your environment and billed at a fixed monthly rate. We achieve this by never provisioning clusters beyond 50% utilization, ensuring consistent performance and eliminating noisy-neighbor concerns.
