Durham, NC, August 09, 2024 –For organizations using Java to develop critical applications, secure transactions, or work with machine learning models, choosing the right cloud instance can help maximize performance and value. With stronger Java performance, businesses can improve user experiences and require fewer instances for their workloads, among other benefits. When Principled Technologies (PT) tested Google Cloud N4 instances featuring 5th Gen Intel Xeon Scalable processors and N1 instances featuring 1st Gen Intel Xeon Scalable processors, they found that the newer instances boosted server-side performance by up to two times. This improvement also translated to a better value, with up to twice the performance per dollar.
According to the PT test report, “For Java workloads, the Google Cloud instance type you choose can affect productivity and profitability. Our Java server test results indicate that N4 instances enabled by 5th Gen Intel Xeon Scalable processors delivered up to twice Java throughput under response time at 16, 32, and 64 vCPU counts versus N1 instances with 1st Gen Intel Xeon processors. These performance gains lead to N4 instances delivering a better value, with up to double the performance per dollar on 16 and 64 vCPU instances. With an instance that can process more OPS at a better value, your company could provide a more satisfying experience for users, reduce Java workloads onto fewer instances, and grow your business.”
