Starting today, new general purpose high-frequency high-network Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (Amazon EC2) M8azn instances are available for preview. These instances are powered by fifth generation AMD EPYC (formerly code named Turin) processors, offering the highest maximum CPU frequency, 5GHz in the cloud. The M8azn instances offer up to 2x compute performance versus previous generation M5zn instances. These instances also deliver 24% higher performance than M8a instances.
M8azn instances are built on the AWS Nitro System, a collection of hardware and software innovations designed by AWS. The AWS Nitro System enables the delivery of efficient, flexible, and secure cloud services with isolated multitenancy, private networking, and fast local storage. These instances are ideal for applications such as gaming, high-performance computing, high-frequency trading (HFT), CI/CD, and simulation modeling for the automotive, aerospace, energy, and telecommunication industries.
