Eliminate Noisy-Neighbor Latency with ZC Technologies' Dedicated GB10

by Ryan Lindsey · 2026-06-17

In multi-tenant environments, noisy-neighbor effects can significantly degrade performance, particularly in terms of latency. ZC Technologies' dedicated GB10 silicon provides hardware isolation, ensuring that your application's performance is not impacted by other users. This is crucial for maintaining consistent service levels, especially for critical operations where p99 latency is more important than average latency.

The Problem with Multi-Tenant Latency

Multi-tenant environments share resources, which can lead to noisy-neighbor effects. This means that the performance of your application can vary depending on the load of other tenants. In a multi-tenant API, this can result in unpredictable latency tails, which can be particularly problematic for real-time applications or services that require consistent performance.

The Advantage of Dedicated GB10

Dedicated GB10 silicon offers hardware isolation, which means that your application runs on its own hardware, free from the interference of other tenants. This isolation ensures that you have consistent and predictable performance, as the hardware resources are entirely dedicated to your application. The result is a significant reduction in latency tails, leading to a more reliable and performant service.

Why p99 Latency Matters

While average latency can give you a general idea of performance, it does not account for the worst-case scenarios. p99 latency, on the other hand, represents the latency experienced by 99% of requests, which is a more accurate measure of the service level your users will experience. In a multi-tenant environment, p99 latency can be much higher than the average due to noisy-neighbor effects. With dedicated hardware, you can achieve a p99 latency that is closer to your average latency, ensuring a consistent user experience.

Cost-Effective Performance

ZC Technologies offers competitive pricing with our monthly subscription plans. The Starter plan at $99 per month includes 1.5M tokens, the Pro plan at $499 per month includes 12.0M tokens, and the Business plan at $1999 per month includes 60.0M tokens. We undercut Anthropic and OpenAI by 60-80% per 1M tokens, making high-performance hardware isolation affordable for businesses of all sizes.
