AmazonEC2 provides a wide selection of instance types optimized to fit different use cases. Instance types comprise varying combinations of CPU, memory, storage, and networking capacity and give you the flexibility to choose the appropriate mix of resources for your applications. Each instance type includes one or more instance sizes, allowing you to scale your resources to the requirements of your target workload.

General purpose instances provide a balance of compute, memory and networking resources, and can be used for a variety of diverse workloads. These instances are ideal for applications that use these resources in equal proportions such as web servers and code repositories.

Applications that benefit from high performance and high throughput such as financial applications, application servers, simulation modeling, gaming, mid-size data stores, application development environments, and caching fleets.

Amazon EC2 Mac instances allow you to run on-demand macOS workloads in the cloud, extending the flexibility, scalability, and cost benefits of AWS to all Apple developers. By using EC2 Mac instances, you can create apps for the iPhone, iPad, Mac, Vision Pro, Apple Watch, Apple TV, and Safari. These instances give developers access to macOS so they can develop, build, test, and sign applications that require the Xcode IDE. EC2 Mac instances are dedicated, bare-metal instances which are accessible in the EC2 console and via the AWS Command Line Interface as Dedicated Hosts.

Amazon EC2 M6g instances are powered by Arm-based AWS Graviton2 processors. They deliver up to 40% better price/performance over current generation M5 instances and offer a balance of compute, memory, and networking resources for a broad set of workloads.

Amazon EC2 M6i instances are powered by 3rd Generation Intel Xeon Scalable processors (Ice Lake). This family provides a balance of compute, memory, and network resources, and is a good choice for many applications.

These instances are SAP-Certified and are ideal for workloads such as backend servers supporting enterprise applications (for example Microsoft Exchange and SharePoint, SAP Business Suite, MySQL, Microsoft SQL Server, and PostgreSQL databases), gaming servers, caching fleets, and application development environments.

Amazon EC2 M6in and M6idn instances are ideal for network-intensive workloads such as backend servers, enterprise, gaming servers, and caching fleets applications. Powered by 3rd Generation Intel Xeon Scalable processors (Ice Lake) with an all-core turbo frequency of 3.5 GHz, they offer up to 200 Gbps of network bandwidth and up to 80 Gbps Amazon EBS bandwidth.

****For 32xlarge and metal sizes, at least two elastic network interfaces, with each attached to a different network card, are required on the instance to achieve 200 Gbps throughput. Each network interface attached to a network card can achieve a maximum of 170 Gbps. For more information, see Network cards

These instances are SAP-Certified and ideal for workloads that can take advantage of high networking throughput. Workloads include high-performance file systems, distributed web scale in-memory caches, caching fleets, real-time big data analytics, Telco applications, such as 5G User Plane Function (UPF), as well as and application development environments.

These instances are SAP-Certified and are ideal for workloads such as backend servers supporting enterprise applications (e.g. Microsoft Exchange and SharePoint, SAP Business Suite, MySQL, Microsoft SQL Server, and PostgreSQL databases), multi-player gaming servers, caching fleets, as well as for application development environments.

Amazon EC2 M5 instances are the latest generation of General Purpose Instances powered by Intel Xeon Platinum 8175M or 8259CL processors. These instances provide a balance of compute, memory, and network resources, and is a good choice for many applications.

Small and mid-size databases, data processing tasks that require additional memory, caching fleets, and for running backend servers for SAP, Microsoft SharePoint, cluster computing, and other enterprise applications

Amazon EC2 M5 instances are ideal for workloads that require a balance of compute, memory, and networking resources including web and application servers, small and mid-sized databases, cluster computing, gaming servers, and caching fleet. The higher bandwidth, M5n and M5dn, instance variants are ideal for applications that can take advantage of improved network throughput and packet rate performance.

Feature:

M5zn instances are an ideal fit for applications that benefit from extremely high single-thread performance and high throughput, low latency networking, such as gaming, High Performance Computing, and simulation modeling for the automotive, aerospace, energy, and telecommunication industries.

Amazon EC2 M5a instances are the latest generation of General Purpose Instances powered by AMD EPYC 7000 series processors. M5a instances deliver up to 10% cost savings over comparable instance types. With M5ad instances, local NVMe-based SSDs are physically connected to the host server and provide block-level storage that is coupled to the lifetime of the instance.

Small and mid-size databases, data processing tasks that require additional memory, caching fleets, and for running backend servers for SAP, Microsoft SharePoint, cluster computing, and other enterprise applications.

Amazon EC2 T4g instances are powered by Arm-based custom built AWS Graviton2 processors and deliver up to 40% better price performance over T3 instances for a broad set of burstable general purpose workloads.

T4g instances accumulate CPU credits when a workload is operating below baseline threshold. Each earned CPU credit provides the T4g instance the opportunity to burst with the performance of a full CPU core for one minute when needed. T4g instances can burst at any time for as long as required in Unlimited mode.

Amazon EC2 T3 instances are the next generation burstable general-purpose instance type that provide a baseline level of CPU performance with the ability to burst CPU usage at any time for as long as required. T3 instances offer a balance of compute, memory, and network resources and are designed for applications with moderate CPU usage that experience temporary spikes in use.

T3 instances accumulate CPU credits when a workload is operating below baseline threshold. Each earned CPU credit provides the T3 instance the opportunity to burst with the performance of a full CPU core for one minute when needed. T3 instances can burst at any time for as long as required in Unlimited mode.

Amazon EC2 T3a instances are the next generation burstable general-purpose instance type that provide a baseline level of CPU performance with the ability to burst CPU usage at any time for as long as required. T3a instances offer a balance of compute, memory, and network resources and are designed for applications with moderate CPU usage that experience temporary spikes in use.

T3a instances can burst at any time for as long as required in Unlimited mode.

T2 Unlimited instances can sustain high CPU performance for as long as a workload needs it. For most general-purpose workloads, T2 Unlimited instances will provide ample performance without any additional charges. If the instance needs to run at higher CPU utilization for a prolonged period, it can also do so at a flat additional charge of 5 cents per vCPU-hour.

The baseline performance and ability to burst are governed by CPU Credits. T2 instances receive CPU Credits continuously at a set rate depending on the instance size, accumulating CPU Credits when they are idle, and consuming CPU credits when they are active. T2 instances are a good choice for a variety of general-purpose workloads including micro-services, low-latency interactive applications, small and medium databases, virtual desktops, development, build and stage environments, code repositories, and product prototypes.

* This is the default and maximum number of vCPUs available for this instance type. You can specify a custom number of vCPUs when launching this instance type. For more details on valid vCPU counts and how to start using this feature, visit the Optimize CPUs documentation page here.

*** Instances marked with "Up to" Network Bandwidth have a baseline bandwidth and can use a network I/O credit mechanism to burst beyond their baseline bandwidth on a best effort basis. For more information, see instance network bandwidth.

Compute Optimized instances are ideal for compute bound applications that benefit from high performance processors. Instances belonging to this category are well suited for batch processing workloads, media transcoding, high performance web servers, high performance computing (HPC), scientific modeling, dedicated gaming servers and ad server engines, machine learning inference and other compute intensive applications.
