AWS Compute Optimizer now supports 80 additional Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (Amazon EC2) instance types. The newly supported instance types include the latest generation compute optimized instances (c7i-flex, c6id, c8g), memory optimized instances (r8g, x8g), storage optimized instances (i4i), and GPU-based instances (g5, g5g, g6, gr6, p4d, p4de, p5). This expands the total EC2 instance types supported by Compute Optimizer to 779.
By including support for the latest instance types that have improved price to performance ratios, Compute Optimizer helps customers identify additional savings opportunities and performance improvement opportunities. The newly supported c8g, r8g, and x8g EC2 instance types include the new AWS Graviton4 processors that offer 50% more cores, 160% more memory bandwidth, and up to 60% better performance than AWS Graviton2 processors. The C7i-flex instances powered by the 4th generation Intel Xeon Scalable custom processors (Sapphire Rapids) offer 5% better price/performance compared to c7i instances.
