Published terms & research notes

The public VPC catalog publishes this fixed vCPU/RAM profile and regional compute price. CPU model, ECC status, public bandwidth guarantee, transfer allowance, and DDoS inclusion are not established by this profile price. Boot block storage is separate; any profile instance storage is ephemeral and cannot be used as a boot disk. On-demand only; GPU, spot, reservation, OS license, and block-storage charges are excluded.
