Amazon EC2 C8gn Instances Available in New Regions

Starting today, Amazon EC2 C8gn instances, powered by the latest-generation AWS Graviton4 processors, are available in the AWS US East (Ohio) and Middle East (UAE) Regions. These instances offer up to 30% better compute performance than Graviton3-based C7gn instances, featuring the latest 6th generation AWS Nitro Cards, and up to 600 Gbps network bandwidth.

Key features include:

  • Instance Sizes: Up to 48xlarge
  • Memory: Up to 384 GiB
  • Bandwidth: Up to 60 Gbps to Amazon EBS
  • Networking: Support for Elastic Fabric Adapter (EFA) on select sizes for lower latency and improved cluster performance

C8gn instances are available in the following AWS Regions: US East (N. Virginia, Ohio), US West (Oregon, N.California), Europe (Frankfurt, Stockholm), Asia Pacific (Singapore, Malaysia, Sydney, Thailand), Middle East (UAE).
