Machine Types are an important concept in cloud computing. They define the hardware specifications of a virtual machine (VM), including the number of CPUs, amount of memory, and type of storage. Choosing the right machine type can help you optimize the performance and cost of your VMs. Also, you can preserve the operations of your virtual machine for rapid recovery, versioning, and backup by creating an image from your custom virtual machine (VM) instance.
