High-memory machine types
These machines are optimized for memory-intensive applications. They come with an extra amount of RAM for every virtual CPU that allows you to go the extra mile regarding memory power.
Every machine of the high-memory type comes with 6.5 GB of RAM for every single virtual CPU, and here are a few examples:

These machines come with a massive amount of RAM and are well suited for distributed caches, databases, and many other types of applications that require a high memory consumption relative to the CPU power.
