As we speak we’re asserting common availability of the Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (Amazon EC2) C8g and M8g situations.
C8g situations are AWS Graviton4 based mostly and are perfect for compute-intensive workloads corresponding 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 common goal workloads. M8g situations are perfect for functions corresponding to utility servers, microservices, gaming servers, mid-size knowledge shops, and caching fleets.
Now a few of the enhancements that we now have made accessible in each these situations. C8g and M8g situations provide 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 occasions 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 complete value of possession (TCO). These situations additionally provide 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 provide two naked metallic sizes (metal-24xl and metal-48xl). You’ll be able to proper dimension your situations and deploy workloads that profit from direct entry to bodily assets.
The specs for the C8g situations are as follows.

| m8g.2xlarge | 8 | 32 | As much as 15 | As much as 10 |
| m8g.4xlarge | 16 | 64 | As much as 15 | As much as 10 |
| m8g.8xlarge | 32 | 128 | 15 | 10 |
| m8g.12xlarge | 48 | 192 | 22.5 | 15 |
| m8g.16xlarge | 64 | 256 | 30 | 20 |
| m8g.24xlarge | 96 | 384 | 40 | 30 |
| m8g.48xlarge | 192 | 768 | 50 | 40 |
| m8g.metal-24xl | 96 | 384 | 40 | 30 |
| m8g.metal-48xl | 192 | 768 | 50 | 40 |
Good to know
- AWS Graviton4 processors provide enhanced safety with always-on reminiscence encryption, devoted caches for each vCPU, and help 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 capabilities to devoted {hardware} and software program. It delivers excessive efficiency, excessive availability, and excessive safety, thus lowering virtualization overhead.
- The C8g and M8g situations are perfect for Linux-based workloads together with containerized and microservices-based functions corresponding to these working on Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service (Amazon EKS) and Amazon Elastic Container Service (Amazon ECS), in addition to functions written in in style programming languages corresponding to C/C++, Rust, Go, Java, Python, .NET Core, Node.js, Ruby, and PHP.
Accessible now
C8g and M8g situations can be found at present within the US East (N. Virginia), US East (Ohio), US West (Oregon), and Europe (Frankfurt) AWS Areas. As standard with Amazon EC2, you pay just for what you employ. For extra data, see Amazon EC2 Pricing. Try the gathering of AWS Graviton assets that can assist you begin migrating your functions to Graviton occasion sorts. It’s also possible to go to the AWS Graviton Quick Begin program to start your Graviton adoption journey.
To be taught extra, go to our Amazon EC2 C8g situations web page and Amazon EC2 M8g situations web page, and please ship suggestions to AWS re:Publish for EC2 or by means of your standard AWS Help contacts.
