Introduction
ECS Bare Metal Instance is an innovative computing service developed by Alibaba Cloud based on state-of-the-art virtualization 2.0 technology. Virtualization 2.0 endows ECS bare metal instances with the elasticity of virtual machines (ECS instances), the performance and features of physical machines, and full support for nested virtualization.
By default, the secondary virtualization capability is enabled for ECS bare metal instances.
ECS bare metal instances combine the strengths of both physical machines and ECS instances to deliver powerful and robust computing capabilities. Using virtualization 2.0, ECS Bare Metal Instance provides your business applications with direct access to the processor and memory resources of the underlying servers without virtualization overhead. ECS Bare Metal Instance retains the hardware feature sets (such as Intel VT-x) and resource isolation capabilities of physical machines, which is ideal for applications that need to run in non-virtualization environments on the cloud.
ECS Bare Metal Instance integrates features from both physical and virtual machines based on the proprietary chips, hypervisor system software, and a redefined server hardware architecture. ECS Bare Metal Instance can seamlessly connect with other Alibaba Cloud services for storage, networking, and database tasks and is fully compatible with ECS images. These properties allow you to build resources to suit your business requirements.
When you use ECS Bare Metal Instance, take note of the following items:
ECS bare metal instances do not support instance type changes.
When the physical machine that hosts an ECS bare metal instance fails, the instance fails over to a healthy physical machine. Data is retained in the data disks of the instance.
The CPU monitoring information about ECS bare metal instances cannot be obtained. To obtain the CPU monitoring information about an ECS bare metal instance, install the CloudMonitor agent on the instance. For more information, see Install and uninstall the CloudMonitor agent.
Benefits
Leveraging technological innovations, ECS Bare Metal Instance provides the following benefits:
Exclusive computing resources
ECS Bare Metal Instance is a cloud-based elastic computing service that provides the same performance and resource isolation capabilities as physical machines. It can ensure the exclusive use of computing resources by tenants without virtualization overhead or performance loss. You can select instance types that support 80, 96, 104, 128, or 192 vCPUs.
Chip-level security
In addition to physical isolation, ECS Bare Metal Instance uses a chip-level trusted execution environment of Intel® Software Guard Extensions (SGX) to ensure that encrypted data can be computed only in a secure and trusted environment. This chip-level hardware security protection provides security for your data in the cloud and allows you to control all data encryption and key protection processes. For more information, see Install SGX.
Compatibility with multiple private clouds
ECS Bare Metal Instance can address high-performance computing needs and help you construct hybrid clouds. Thanks to the flexibility, elasticity, and other strengths inherited from the combination of physical and virtual machines, ECS Bare Metal Instance can implement re-virtualization and allow local private clouds to seamlessly migrate to Alibaba Cloud without performance overhead arising from nested virtualization. This provides you with a new method to move business to the cloud.
Support for heterogeneous instruction set processors
ECS Bare Metal Instance uses the virtualization 2.0 technology developed by Alibaba Cloud and supports instruction set processors such as Advanced RISC Machine (ARM).
Comparison of ECS bare metal instances, physical machines, and virtual machines
An ECS bare metal instance delivers better performance than a physical machine that has the same configurations. During the yearly Double 11 sales event, ECS bare metal instances deliver robust computing capabilities with millions of vCPUs to handle spikes in traffic.

ebmgn8v, GPU-accelerated compute-optimized ECS Bare Metal Instance family
This instance family is available only in specific regions, including regions outside China. To use the instance family, contact Alibaba Cloud sales personnel.
Introduction: This instance family is an 8th-generation GPU-accelerated compute-optimized ECS Bare Metal Instance family provided by Alibaba Cloud for AI model training and ultra-large models. Each instance of this instance family is equipped with eight GPUs.
Supported scenarios:
Multi-GPU parallel inference computing for large language models (LLMs) that have more than 70 billion parameters
Traditional AI model training and autonomous driving training, for which each GPU delivers computing power of up to 39.5 TFLOPS in the single-precision floating-point format (FP32)
Small and medium-sized model training scenarios that leverage the NVLink connections among the eight GPUs
Benefits and positioning:
High-speed and large-capacity GPU memory: Each GPU is equipped with 96 GB of HBM3E memory and delivers up to 4 TB/s of memory bandwidth, which greatly accelerates model training and inference.
High bandwidth between GPUs: Multiple GPUs are interconnected by using 900 GB/s NVLink connections. The efficiency of multi-GPU training and inference is much higher than that of previous generations of GPU-accelerated instances.
Quantization of large models: This instance family supports computing power in the 8-bit floating point format (FP8) and optimizes computing power for large-scale parameter training and inference. This significantly improves the computing speed of training and inference and reduces memory usage.
Compute:
Uses the latest CIPU 1.0 processors.
Decouples computing capabilities from storage capabilities, allowing you to flexibly select storage resources based on your business requirements, and increases inter-instance bandwidth to 160 Gbit/s for faster data transmission and processing compared with 7th-generation instance families.
Uses the bare metal capabilities provided by CIPU processors to support peer-to-peer (P2P) communication between GPU-accelerated instances.
Uses the 4th-generation Intel Xeon Scalable processors that deliver an all-core turbo frequency of up to 3.1 GHz and provides 192 vCPUs.
Storage:
Is an instance family in which all instances are I/O optimized.
Supports ESSDs, ESSD AutoPL disks, and elastic ephemeral disks (EEDs). For information about disks, see Overview of Block Storage.
Network:
Supports IPv4 and IPv6. For information about IPv6 communication, see IPv6 communication.
Provides ultra-high network performance with a packet forwarding rate of 30,000,000 pps.
Supports elastic RDMA interfaces (ERIs) to allow inter-instance RDMA-based communication in VPCs and provides up to 160 Gbit/s of bandwidth per instance, which is suitable for training tasks based on CV models and traditional models.
NoteFor information about how to use ERIs, see Configure eRDMA on an enterprise-level instance.
