MaxCloud compute nodes are optimized for high performance computing, combining multi-core x86 CPUs with multiple Maxeler dataflow compute engines, large memory systems, fast disks and running an industry standard Linux distribution. Each compute node typically provides the performance of 20-50 standard x86 servers. See below for the configurations of specific available MaxCloud machine instances.
