de.NBI default: 2 VCPUs, 2 GB RAM

This is the default flavor that can be used for running simple command line applications and for testing purposes.

de.NBI small: 8 VCPUs, 16 GB RAM

This flavor is suitable for a large number of bioinformatics applications and it is also appropriate for running a number of Docker containers or for hosting web-based software.

This flavour can be used for applications with higher memory requirements.
