series G is also based on a latest generation CPU (Intel Xeon E5-2673 V3) (Haswell with 2.4 GHz) and it is based on the older series D, but the G instances have a twice larger memory and four times larger temporary disks based on an SSD. With exceptional, high-performance VM sizes in the G range, you can easily handle business critical applications such as large relational database servers (SQL Server, MySQL, and so on) or large NoSQL databases (MongoDB, Cloudera Cassandra, and so on).
The G CPU can additionally be overclocked with the Intel Turbo Boost Technology 2.0 up to 3.1 GHz.
