✅ This instance type is available for self-hosted GitHub Actions runners using RunsOn.

EC2 Instance family: m7g

The Amazon EC2 m7g instance type is powered by the latest generation AWS Graviton3 processors, which are Arm-based. These processors offer significant performance improvements, including up to 25% better performance compared to Graviton2-based M6g instances, up to 2x higher floating-point performance, up to 2x faster cryptographic workload performance, and up to 3x better performance for machine learning (ML) workloads with bfloat16 support. A key feature of m7g instances is the inclusion of Double Data Rate 5 (DDR5) memory, which provides 50% higher memory bandwidth than DDR4.

Released on February 13, 2023, m7g instances are built on the AWS Nitro System, which ensures enhanced security through features like always-on memory encryption, dedicated caches per vCPU, and pointer authentication, in addition to supporting encrypted Amazon Elastic Block Store (EBS) volumes by default. These instances also provide up to 30 Gbps enhanced networking bandwidth and up to 20 Gbps of bandwidth to Amazon EBS, with Elastic Fabric Adapter (EFA) support available on 16xlarge and bare-metal sizes. Designed for general-purpose workloads, they are ideal for applications such as application servers, microservices, gaming servers, mid-size data stores, and caching fleets, while also consuming up to 60% less energy for the same performance as comparable EC2 instances.
