EC2 Instance family: m8g
The EC2 instance type m8g is a general-purpose instance powered by the latest-generation AWS Graviton4 processors, which are Arm-based. These instances offer significant performance improvements, delivering up to 30% better performance compared to their Graviton3-based predecessors. They feature DDR5-5600 memory and are built on the AWS Nitro System, which enhances performance and security by offloading virtualization functions to dedicated hardware and software.
Specific features of the m8g instances include larger sizes, providing up to three times more vCPUs and memory than Graviton3-based instances, with the largest m8g.metal-48xl offering 192 vCPUs and 768 GiB of memory. They support up to 50 Gbps enhanced networking bandwidth and up to 40 Gbps of bandwidth to Amazon Elastic Block Store (EBS). Graviton4 processors also offer enhanced security features like always-on memory encryption and dedicated caches for every vCPU. M8g instances are available in 12 different sizes, including two bare metal options, and are well-suited for general-purpose workloads such as application servers, microservices, gaming servers, midsize data stores, and caching fleets. These instances became generally available on September 25, 2024.
