I want to know Number of cpu cores used in Elastic Cloud for IO/Intensive and Compute-Intensive hardware profiles for 4 GB RAM setup. Any idea?

Hi @Yash_Srivastava welcome to the community and thanks for considering Elastic Cloud.

You can get the details on the underlying HW type [here](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/cloud/current/ec-default-provider-configurations.html) and [here](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/cloud/current/ec-default-provider-configurations.html)

The amount of CPU is roughly proportional to the amount of RAM for each instance type, which should give you an idea.
