High-Performance
Compute Built for
Your Workload.
Three instance families. One bare-metal substrate. Pick the memory ratio that fits the workload, pay up to 37% less than the equivalent on AWS.
Compute You'd Build.
If You Owned the Datacenter.
3 Instance Families
n1-highcpu, n1-standard, n1-highmem. Match the memory ratio to your workload, not the other way around.
High-Clock AMD EPYC
Dedicated cores on AMD EPYC 9354P. No oversubscription. No noisy neighbors. No core sharing.
Lightweight Hypervisor
Custom hypervisor with minimal virtualization overhead. Tuned for latency-sensitive workloads, spin up in seconds, zero hardware to manage.
GCP / AWS Compatible
Familiar shape naming (n1-*). Drop-in for Compute Engine and EC2 workloads, keep your tooling.
VMs and NKS
Run instances directly or as nodes inside Nirvana Kubernetes Service. Same shapes, same pricing.
Up to 37% Cheaper
Beat AWS equivalents by up to 37%. No commits required, no hidden egress.
Pick the Shape
That Fits the Workload.
Every n1 shape runs on the same high-clock AMD EPYC substrate. The only thing that changes is the memory ratio, and the price.
Built for compute-bound work. CI/CD pipelines, video encoding, cryptographic verification, and blockchain validation — workloads where CPU cycles matter more than memory. Sizes range from n1-highcpu-2 (2 vCPU, 4 GB) to n1-highcpu-96 (96 vCPU, 192 GB).
- CI/CD pipelines
- Video encoding
- Cryptographic verification
- Blockchain validation
The general-purpose family. Web servers, application backends, relational databases, and microservice fleets. This is where most teams start. Sizes range from n1-standard-2 (2 vCPU, 8 GB) to n1-standard-192 (192 vCPU, 768 GB).
- Web servers & API gateways
- Application backends
- Relational databases
- Microservice fleets
Memory-optimized for workloads that need large memory-to-CPU ratios. In-memory caches (Redis, Memcached), analytical databases (ClickHouse, DuckDB), blockchain archive nodes, and data warehousing. Sizes range from n1-highmem-2 (2 vCPU, 16 GB) to n1-highmem-96 (96 vCPU, 768 GB).
- Redis / Memcached
- ClickHouse / DuckDB
- Blockchain archive nodes
- Data warehousing
