This instance family uses Intel® OptaneTM persistent memory. Important The reliability of data stored in persistent memory varies based on the reliability of persistent memory devices and the physical servers to which these devices are attached. Risks of single points of failure exist. To ensure the reliability of application data, we recommend that you implement data redundancy at the application layer and use cloud disks for long-term data storage. This instance family allows persistent memory to be used as memory or as local SSDs on instances of some instance types. Note For more information, see Configure the usage mode of persistent memory. This instance family provides the ecs.re6p-redis.<nx>large instance types for Redis applications. Note ecs.re6p-redis.<nx>large instance types are exclusively provided for Redis applications. Persistent memory on instances of these instance types is used as memory by default and cannot be re-configured as local SSDs. For information about how to deploy a Redis application, see Deploy Redis applications on instances with persistent memory.
