Scaleway Instances internet and Block Storage bandwidth overview

Reviewed on 12 May 2025 • Published on 19 November 2024

This guide provides a complete overview of internet and Block Storage bandwidth for Scaleway Instances. Understanding these specifications is crucial for optimizing your infrastructure for performance and compatibility.

Why bandwidth mattersLink to this anchor

Bandwidth impacts how your applications perform and interact with other systems.

Internet bandwidth: Affects how fast your Instance can send or receive data over the internet.
Block bandwidth: Determines the read/write speed to Block Storage, essential for storage-heavy workloads like databases and analytics.

Important

Bandwidth specifications listed here are for informational purposes. To validate the exact bandwidth capacity of your Instance type, refer to the block_bandwidth field in the

Instances API. Use the endpoint /instance/v1/zones/{zone}/products/servers to retrieve Instance type specifications.

Tip

To maximize compatibility with

Block Storage Low Latency 15k, select an Instance with at least 3 GiB/s of Block bandwidth.
