Dedicated equipment
A VPC provisions compute, network, and storage resources fully dedicated to a single project, with no shared tenant load. Compute can be deployed as discrete nodes or as a fault-tolerant N+1 cluster (one node kept in hot standby). VMs automatically migrate to healthy nodes on failure; preventive maintenance runs without service interruption. Nodes may use locally attached SSDs, NVMe drives, or HDDs, or project-dedicated storage arrays. A VPC connects to the public internet and to the client's corporate LAN (hybrid cloud) over dedicated uplinks, with all traffic delivered through segregated network ports.
