Linode expanded its cloud instance offerings to include one of most requested features: Dedicated CPU.
Dedicated instances are optimized for workloads where consistent performance is required or where high CPU duty work (100% CPU all day, every day) needs doing. This includes build boxes, CI/CD, video encoding, machine learning, game servers, databases, data mining, and busy application servers.
The underlying CPU resources for these instances are dedicated and shared with no one else. A Dedicated Linode's vCPU threads are assigned exclusively to cores and SMT threads on the hypervisor, and there is no sharing or competing for these resources with other Linodes.
Dedicated CPU Plans
Dedicated Instances are immediately available in all regions. You can create new Dedicated Linodes or resize existing ones into a Dedicated plan.

In addition, Linode is planning to opens new data centers in Canada, India, along with Object Storage (like digitalocean obj), Linode Kubernetes and more products.
Nice a day 🙂
