Amazon EC2 M8in, M8idn, M8ib, M8idb instances are now available in additional regions

Starting today, Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (Amazon EC2) M8in, M8idn network optimized, and M8ib, M8idb EBS optimized instances are available in the AWS US East (Ohio), Europe (Ireland), and Asia Pacific (Tokyo) regions. The new instances are powered by custom sixth generation Intel Xeon Scalable processors available only on AWS and deliver up to 43% higher performance compared to previous generation instances. These instances also feature the latest sixth generation AWS Nitro cards.

M8in, M8idn instances deliver 600 Gbps network bandwidth, the highest network bandwidth among enhanced networking EC2 instances, and are ideal for workloads such as real-time big data analytics, distributed web scale in-memory caches, caching fleets for AI/ML clusters, and Telco applications such as 5G User Plane Function (UPF).

M8ib, M8idb instances deliver up to 300Gbps EBS bandwidth, the highest among non-accelerated compute EC2 instances, and are best suited for workloads that benefit from high block storage performance, such as high-performance file systems and NoSQL databases.

M8idn instances are ideal for network-intensive workloads that benefit from low-latency local storage, such as distributed compute, data analytics, and high-performance file systems. M8idb instances are ideal for storage-intensive workloads such as large commercial databases, data lakes, and NoSQL databases that benefit from both high EBS throughput and low-latency local NVMe storage.

M8in, M8idn, M8ib, M8idb instances are available in US East (N. Virginia, Ohio), US West (Oregon), Europe (Ireland), Asia Pacific (Tokyo), and Europe (Spain) regions, via Savings Plans, On-Demand, and Spot instances. For more information, visit the Amazon EC2 M8i instance page.
