Immediately we’re saying basic availability of the Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (Amazon EC2) C8g and M8g situations.
C8g situations are AWS Graviton4 based and are perfect for compute-intensive workloads akin to excessive efficiency computing (HPC), batch processing, gaming, video encoding, scientific modeling, distributed analytics, CPU-based machine studying (ML) inference, and advert serving.
Additionally Graviton4 based mostly, M8g situations present the very best worth efficiency for basic goal workloads. M8g situations are perfect for functions akin to utility servers, microservices, gaming servers, mid-size information shops, and caching fleets.
Now a number of the enhancements that we have now made obtainable in each these situations. C8g and M8g situations supply bigger occasion sizes with as much as 3 times extra vCPUs (as much as 48xl), 3 times the reminiscence (as much as 384GB for C8g and as much as 768GB for M8g), 75 p.c extra reminiscence bandwidth, and two instances extra L2 cache over equal 7g situations. This lets you course of bigger quantities of information, scale up your workloads, enhance time to outcomes, and decrease your whole price of possession (TCO). These situations additionally supply as much as 50 Gbps community bandwidth and as much as 40 Gbps Amazon Elastic Block Storage (Amazon EBS) bandwidth in comparison with as much as 30 Gbps community bandwidth and as much as 20 Gbps Amazon EBS bandwidth on Graviton3-based situations. Just like R8g situations, C8g and M8g situations supply two naked steel sizes (metal-24xl and metal-48xl). You’ll be able to proper measurement your situations and deploy workloads that profit from direct entry to bodily assets.
The specs for the C8g situations are as follows.

| m8g.metal-48xl | 192 | 768 | 50 | 40 |
Good to know
- AWS Graviton4 processors supply enhanced safety with always-on reminiscence encryption, devoted caches for each vCPU, and assist for pointer authentication.
- These situations are constructed on the AWS Nitro System which is a wealthy assortment of constructing blocks that offloads most of the conventional virtualization features to devoted {hardware} and software program. It delivers excessive efficiency, excessive availability, and excessive safety, thus decreasing virtualization overhead.
- The C8g and M8g situations are perfect for Linux-based workloads together with containerized and microservices-based functions akin to these working on Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service (Amazon EKS) and Amazon Elastic Container Service (Amazon ECS), in addition to functions written in well-liked programming languages akin to C/C++, Rust, Go, Java, Python, .NET Core, Node.js, Ruby, and PHP.
Out there now
C8g and M8g situations can be found in the present day within the US East (N. Virginia), US East (Ohio), US West (Oregon), and Europe (Frankfurt) AWS Areas. As typical with Amazon EC2, you pay just for what you employ. For extra data, see Amazon EC2 Pricing. Take a look at the gathering of AWS Graviton resources that can assist you begin migrating your functions to Graviton occasion sorts. You can even go to the AWS Graviton Fast Start program to start your Graviton adoption journey.
