What is Sole-tenant Nodes
- Dedicated Physical server for hosting only your projects.
- NOT SHARED with any other customers
- Can use all Compute Engine features as other VMs
- Can meet security and compliance requirements with workloads that require physical isolation
- Can meet requirements for BYOL (Bring your own license) scenarios
- Configurable maintenance policy helps us to schedule the Sole-tenant HOST maintenance as per our desired timing.
Usecases
• Gaming workloads with performance requirements
• Finance or healthcare workloads with security and compliance requirements
• Windows workloads with licensing requirements
• Machine learning, data processing, or image rendering workloads. For these workloads, consider reserving GPUs.
