Pursue digital innovation
with confidence in the cloud.
Together, Google Cloud and AMD are helping to make digital innovation possible with breakthrough cloud, hybrid cloud, and multi-cloud capabilities. Google Cloud virtual machines (VMs) powered by 3rd Gen AMD EPYC™ processors deliver leading price-performance solutions for general-purpose (N2D), compute-optimized (C2D), and scale-out (T2D) workloads.
Google Cloud and AMD VMs for every workload
N2D General purpose
30%
better price performance compared to N2Ds powered by 2nd Gen EPYC processors with the same 13% lower cost over comparable N-series VMs1
T2D Scale-out
42%
leading price performance than comparable VMs from leading cloud service providers (CSPs)2
C2D Compute optimized
30%
improved performance for workloads
(i.e., STREAM Triad) than N2D (Rome)
with ~6% lower cost than N2D
