class="devsite-article-body clearfix "> <hr class="cloud-divider"> <p>This document describes the machine families, machine series, and machine types that you can choose from to create a virtual machine (VM) instance or bare metal instance with the resources that you need. When you create a compute instance, you select a machine type from a machine family that determines the resources available to that instance.</p> <p>There are several machine families you can choose from. Each machine family is further organized into machine series and predefined machine types within each series. For example, within the N2 machine series in the general-purpose machine family, you can select the <code translate="no" dir="ltr">n2-standard-4</code> machine type.</p> <p id="spot-machine-types">All machine series support <a href="/compute/docs/instances/preemptible">Spot VMs</a> (and preemptible VMs), with the exception of the M2, M3, and X4 machine series, and C3 bare metal machine types. </p> <div class="note"><strong>Note:</strong> This is a list of Compute Engine machine families. For a detailed explanation of each machine family, see the following pages: <ul> <li><a href="/compute/docs/general-purpose-machines">General-purpose</a> —best price-performance ratio for a variety of workloads.</li> <li><a href="/compute/docs/storage-optimized-machines">Storage-optimized</a> —best for workloads that are low in core usage and high in storage density.</li> <li><a href="/compute/docs/compute-optimized-machines">Compute-optimized</a> —highest performance per core on Compute Engine and optimized for compute-intensive workloads.</li> <li><a href="/compute/docs/memory-optimized-machines">Memory-optimized</a> —ideal for memory-intensive workloads, offering more memory per core than other machine families, with up to 12 TB of memory.</li> <li><a href="/compute/docs/accelerator-optimized-machines">Accelerator-optimized</a> —ideal for massively parallelized Compute Unified Device Architecture (CUDA) compute workloads, such as machine learning (ML) and high performance computing (HPC). This family is the best option for workloads that require GPUs.</li> </ul> </div> <h2 id="vm_terminology" data-text="Compute Engine terminology" tabindex="-1">Compute Engine terminology</h2> <p>This documentation uses the following terms:</p> <ul> <li><p><strong>Machine family</strong>: A curated set of processor and hardware configurations optimized for specific workloads.</p></li> <li><p><strong>Machine series</strong>: Machine families are further classified by series, generation, and processor type.</p> <ul> <li>Each series focuses on a different aspect of computing power or performance. For example, the E series offers efficient VMs at a low cost, while the C series offer better performance.</li> <li>The generation is denoted by an ascending number. For example, the N1 series within the general-purpose machine family is the older version of the N2 series. A higher generation or series number usually indicates newer underlying CPU platforms or technologies. For example, the M3 series, which runs on Intel Xeon Scalable Processor 3rd Generation (Ice Lake), is a newer generation than the M2 series, which runs on Intel Xeon Scalable Processor 2nd Generation (Cascade Lake).</li> </ul></li> </ul> <table style="width:100%" class="vertical-rules"> <thead> <tr> <td><strong>Generation</strong></td> <td><strong>Intel</strong></td> <td><strong>AMD</strong></td> <td><strong>Arm</strong></td> </tr> </thead> <tbody> <tr> <td>4th generation machine series</td> <td>N4, C4, X4</td> <td>N/A</td> <td>C4A</td> </tr> <tr> <td>3rd generation machine series</td> <td>C3, H3, Z3, M3, A3</td> <td>C3D</td> <td>N/A</td> </tr> <tr> <td>2nd generation machine series</td> <td>N2, E2, C2, M2, A2, G2</td> <td>N2D, C2D, T2D, E2</td> <td>T2A</td> </tr> </tbody> </table> <ul> <li><strong>Machine type</strong>: Every machine series offers at least one machine type. Each machine type provides a set of resources for your compute instance, such as vCPUS, memory, disks, and GPUs. If a predefined machine type does not meet your needs, you can also create a <a href="#custom-types">custom machine type</a> for some machine series.</li> </ul> <p>The following sections describe the different machine types.</p> <h3 id="predefined-types" data-text="Predefined machine types" tabindex="-1">Predefined machine types</h3> <p>Predefined machine types come with a non-configurable amount of memory and vCPUs. Predefined machine types use a variety of vCPU to memory ratios:</p> <ul> <li><code translate="no" dir="ltr">highcpu</code> — from 1 to 3 GB memory per vCPU; typically, 2 GB memory per vCPU.</li> <li><code translate="no" dir="ltr">standard</code> — from 3 to 7 GB memory per vCPU; typically, 4 GB memory per vCPU.</li> <li><code translate="no" dir="ltr">highmem</code> — from 7 to 14 GB memory per vCPU; typically, 8 GB memory per vCPU.</li> <li><code translate="no" dir="ltr">megamem</code> — from 14 to 19 GB memory per vCPU</li> <li><code translate="no" dir="ltr">hypermem</code> — from 19 to 24 GB memory per vCPU; typically, 21 GB memory per vCPU</li> <li><code translate="no" dir="ltr">ultramem</code> — from 24 to 31 GB memory per vCPU</li> </ul> <p>For example, a <code translate="no" dir="ltr">c3-standard-22</code> machine type has 22 vCPUs, and as a <code translate="no" dir="ltr">standard</code> machine type, it also has 88 GB of memory.</p> <h3 id="lssd-types" data-text="Local SSD machine types" tabindex="-1">Local SSD machine types</h3> <p>Local SSD machine types are a special predefined machine type. The machine type name ends in <code translate="no" dir="ltr">-lssd</code>. When you create a compute instance using one of these machine types, Local SSD disks are automatically attached to the instance.</p> <p>These machine types are available with the C3 and C3D machine series. Other machine series also support Local SSD disks but don't use a <code translate="no" dir="ltr">-lssd</code> machine type. For more information about what machine types you can use with Local SSD disks, see <a href="/compute/docs/disks/local-ssd#choose_number_local_ssds">Choose a valid number of Local SSD disks</a>.</p> <h3 id="bare-metal-types" data-text="Bare metal machine types" tabindex="-1">Bare metal machine types</h3> <p>Bare metal machine types are a special predefined machine type. The machine type name ends in <code translate="no" dir="ltr">-metal</code>. When you create a compute instance using one of these machine types, there is no hypervisor installed on the instance. You can attach Hyperdisk storage to a bare metal instance, just as you would with a VM instance. Bare metal instances can be used in VPC networks and subnetworks in the same way as VM instances.</p> <aside class="note"><strong>Note:</strong><span> Compute Engine bare metal instances are not related to <a href="/bare-metal/docs/bms-overview">Bare Metal Solution</a>.</span></aside> <p>These machine types are available with the C3 and X4 machine series.</p> <h3 id="custom-types" data-text="Custom machine types" tabindex="-1">Custom machine types</h3> <p>If none of the predefined machine types match your workload needs, you can create a VM instance with a custom machine type for the <a href="/compute/docs/general-purpose-machines#custom_machine_types">N and E machine series</a> in the general-purpose machine family. .</p> <p>Custom machine types cost slightly more to use compared to an equivalent predefined machine type. Also, there are limitations in the amount of memory and vCPUs that you can select for a custom machine type. The on-demand prices for custom machine types include a 5% premium over the on-demand and commitment prices for predefined machine types.</p> <p>With extended memory, available only with custom machine types, you can specify an amount of memory for the custom machine type with no vCPU-based limitation. Instead of using the default memory size based on the number of vCPUs specified, you can specify an amount of extended memory, up to the limit of the machine series.</p> <p>For more information, see <a href="/compute/docs/instances/creating-instance-with-custom-machine-type">Create a VM with a custom machine type</a>.</p> <h3 id="shared-core-types" data-text="Shared-core machine types" tabindex="-1">Shared-core machine types</h3> <p>The E2 and N1 series contain shared-core machine types.

<p>GPUs are used to accelerate workloads, and are supported for N1, A3, A2, and G2 VM instances. For VMs that use N1 machine types, you can attach GPUs to the VM during, or after VM creation. For VMs that use A3, A2, or G2 machine types, the GPUs are automatically attached when you create the VM. GPUs can't be used with any other machine series.</p> <p>VM instances with lower numbers of GPUs are limited to a maximum number of vCPUs. In general, a higher number of GPUs lets you create instances with a higher number of vCPUs and memory.
