Google Cloud H4D VMs Boost Finance Workload Performance
⚡ Google Cloud announced the H4D VM family (Preview), powered by 5th Gen AMD EPYC processors (Turin), aimed at delivering extreme performance for financial services workloads. The H4D series targets latency-sensitive use cases such as high-frequency trading, Monte Carlo risk simulations, backtesting, and derivatives pricing by offering faster core-to-core communication, larger memory capacity, and improved network throughput. AMD benchmarking with the open-source KX Nano test reported an average ~34% out-of-the-box performance gain over prior C3D VMs, with per-core and multi-threaded uplifts around 1.33–1.36x. Google Cloud will demonstrate H4D and complementary HPC solutions at STAC Summit NYC on October 28th and will have experts available to discuss performance, security, and compliance.
