Compute Shapes
A shape is a template that determines the number of OCPUs , amount of memory, and other resources that are allocated to an instance. Compute shapes are available with AMD processors, Intel processors, and Arm-based processors.
This topic provides basic information about the shapes that are available for bare metal instances, virtual machines (VMs), and dedicated virtual machine hosts. For information about service limits, see Compute Limits.
- When a new region becomes available, it might take a few weeks before host capacity also becomes available.
- If your instance uses stateful security rules, each instance has a maximum number of concurrent connections that can be tracked, based on the instance's shape.
Flexible Shapes
A flexible shape is a shape that lets you customize the number of OCPUs and the amount of memory when launching or resizing your VM. When you create a VM instance using a flexible shape, you select the number of OCPUs and the amount of memory that you need for the workloads that run on the instance. The network bandwidth and number of VNICs scale proportionately with the number of OCPUs. This flexibility lets you build VMs that match your workload, enabling you to optimize performance and minimize cost.
These are the flexible shapes:
- VM.Standard.E3.Flex (AMD)
- VM.Standard.E4.Flex (AMD)
- VM.Optimized3.Flex (Intel)
- VM.Standard.A1.Flex (Arm processor from Ampere)
Flexible memory is also available on flexible shapes. The amount of memory allowed is based on the number of OCPUs selected. The ratio of memory to OCPUs depends on the shape.
| Shape | Maximum OCPUs | Maximum Memory per OCPU | Minimum Memory | Maximum Memory |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| VM.Standard.E3.Flex | 64 | 64 GB per OCPU | 1 GB or a value matching the number of OCPUs, whichever is greater |
1024 GB |
| VM.Standard.E4.Flex | 64 | 64 GB per OCPU | 1 GB or a value matching the number of OCPUs, whichever is greater |
1024 GB |
| VM.Optimized3.Flex | 18 | 64 GB per OCPU | 1 GB or a value matching the number of OCPUs, whichever is greater | 256 GB |
| VM.Standard.A1.Flex | 80 | 64 GB per OCPU | 1 GB or a value matching the number of OCPUs, whichever is greater | 512 GB |
These resources are billed at a per-second granularity with a one-minute minimum. Optimize your costs by choosing the shape that matches your workload and by changing the shape when your workload changes. For example, you can configure the VM to maximize compute processing power by choosing a low core-to-memory ratio. Or, for applications like in-memory databases or big data processing engines, configure an instance with a high core-to-memory ratio. Modify the OCPUs and memory as your workload changes, scaling up to increase performance or scaling down to reduce costs.

For Standard.E3 shapes, billing is based on OCPUs and memory, which are billed independently. |

Previous Generation Shapes
Oracle Cloud Infrastructure periodically releases new generations of Compute shapes. The latest shapes let you take advantage of newer hardware and a better price-performance ratio. When a shape is several years old, and newer generation shapes that are suited for the same purposes are available, the old shape transitions to become a previous generation shape.
Previous generation shapes are still fully supported. However, because the underlying hardware has reached the sustaining phase of its lifecycle, capacity in certain high-demand regions might be limited.
If you're using a previous generation shape, we encourage you to upgrade to a current generation shape.
Upgrading from a Previous Generation Shape
To upgrade from a previous generation shape to a current generation shape, you can do the following things:
- For supported VM instances, change the shape of the instance.
- For bare metal instances and VM instances that don't support changing the shape, terminate the instance but DO NOT delete the boot volume. Then, use the boot volume to create a new instance.
Previous Generation Bare Metal Shapes
These are the previous generation bare metal shape series.
