That sounds damned near useless for typical data analysis purposes and I would very much prefer a distributed system to a system that would take an hour to fill main memory over its tiny network port. Also, those cost $400/hr and are specifically designed for businesses where they have backed themselves into a corner of needing to run a huge SAP HANA instance. I doubt they would even sell you one before you prove you have an SAP license.

For a tiny fraction of the cost you can get numerous nodes with 600gbps ethernet ports that can fill their memory in seconds.



Seems they come with 200gbit ports so it takes 20 minutes to fill memory.
