High Memory instances offer a cost-effective way to run memory-intensive applications on dedicated CPUs. Perfect for when you need more RAM without increasing storage or vCPUs.
Optimized for in-memory databases and caches, a High Memory Compute Instance is perfect for high-performance querying and is an integral to any enterprise-level database solution.
Store more data in system memory to speed up retrieval times and increase your application's performance.
Run workloads that require heavy-duty enterprise-grade performance with large amounts of system RAM and 100% CPU resources 24/7 without any resource contention.
Run queries on large data volumes. High Memory Compute Instances make it possible to process your data completely in memory and quickly get query results.
Resources for High Memory Compute Instances are completely dedicated (not shared). The vCPU threads are assigned exclusively to cores and SMT threads on the hypervisor.
Tune your Compute Instance to your unique application requirements. High Memory plans prioritize system RAM over other resources so you get exactly what you need.
High memory Compute Instances are optimized for memory-intensive workloads for fantastic price-to-performance ratio.

Shared CPU Cores
In this video, we'll explain Linode’s GPU instances. Scientists, artists, and engineers need access to significant parallel computational power. Linode offers GPU-optimized virtual machines accelerated by the NVIDIA Quadro RTX 6000, harnessing the power of CUDA, Tensor, and RT cores to execute complex processing, deep learning, and ray tracing workloads.
Linode Dedicated CPU instances are a powerful infrastructure solution for CPU-intensive applications such as video encoding, machine learning, data analytics processing, and much more. In this video, we'll cover some of the main benefits and common use cases that take full advantage of the power of Dedicated CPU instances.
Linode Images allow you to take snapshots of your disks, and then deploy them to any Linode under your account. Custom images can also be uploaded into the Cloud Manager to quickly and easily apply it to new or existing workloads.
In this video, we'll take a look at how you can use Cloudron to install and run a Multiplayer Minecraft Server on your Linode. We'll cover everything from setting up your Linode, installing Cloudron, to installing Minecraft.
Discourse is an open source discussion platform that provides a forum, mailing list, chat room, and more. In this video @TechHut shows you how to install Discourse using the Linode One-Click app Marketplace.
