User-defined classes of virtual processors
You can define special classes of virtual processors to run user-defined routines or to run a DataBlade® module.
User-defined routines are typically written to support user-defined data types. If you do not want a user-defined routine to run in the CPU class, which is the default, you can assign it to a user-defined class of virtual processors (VPs). User-defined classes of virtual processors are also called extension virtual processors.

processors:
