BD-64: 16 vCPU, 64 GB RAM, 500 GB NVMe

BD-64 carries DC-64's core count and memory at less than a quarter of its price, with 500 GB of NVMe besides — and the gap is the whole story of the line: these cores are shared on a density-tuned platform in Nuremberg, not pinned in your choice of fourteen regions. It is the right machine for big, parallel, room-hungry workloads where a slower ceiling on a much bigger machine beats a faster ceiling on a smaller one. Built to order within one business day.

Configure and deploy

Region and image are chosen on the configurator, and the price does not change with either.

Scope

What the price covers, and what it does not.

BD-64 is a self-managed server. The list on the right is not a gap we intend to fill later — it is the other product.

In the price

  • Full root access — your own kernel, your own packages, your own firewall
  • One dedicated IPv4 for the life of the server
  • Provisioned to order on the supplier's platform and handed over ready to log in

Not in the price

  • Nobody patches the operating system but you — this is a self-managed server
  • No snapshot, resize or private-networking panel features on this line — it is a different platform underneath
  • No managed backup add-on on this line yet: take your own backups off the box
  • Regions cannot be changed in place; moving means a new server and a DNS cutover
  • Prepaid terms are not pro-rated if you destroy the server early

Suited to

Where BD-64 is the right size.

Sixteen cores, 64 GB and half a terabyte of NVMe for $80.90.

A big Docker host
Dozens of containers with honest resource budgets, on a machine sized so the scheduler is never the bottleneck.
Data and analytics work
64 GB keeps large working sets in memory, and half a terabyte of NVMe holds the datasets they come from.
An estate on one machine
Several production applications and their databases consolidated, each with more room than its old server had.

Line

BD-64 sits on the Value line. Cores on this line are shared with other tenants on the same host. Bursts are quick; an hour pinned at 100% is not something a shared core can promise.

Questions

About BD-64 specifically.

These are the questions this plan actually gets, answered without the marketing round-off.

DS-1 is a whole machine for $133.90 — why pay $80.90 for this?
A fair question with a real answer each way. DS-1 gives you twenty physical threads and the entire machine, for $133.90 plus a one-off $49.00, delivered in a business day and billed monthly only. BD-64 has no setup fee, bills hourly if you want it to, and can be destroyed the moment you are done. Buy the metal for a workload that has settled; buy this while it has not.
Is the RAM ECC?
We do not know, so we do not claim it. The supplier does not publish the platform's memory configuration, and this catalogue does not print figures we cannot stand behind. The classic lines run on hosts we can vouch for ECC on; if that guarantee matters, buy there or buy metal.
