Amazon EC2 I8ge instances now generally available in Europe (Ireland) AWS region.

Amazon Web Services (AWS) announces the availability of Amazon EC2 I8ge instances in Europe (Ireland) AWS region. Designed for large storage I/O intensive workloads, these new instances are powered by 5th generation Intel Xeon Scalable processors with an all-core turbo frequency of 3.2 GHz, offering up to 40% better compute performance and 20% better price performance over existing I3en instances.

I8ge instances offer up to 120TB local NVMe storage density—the highest available in the cloud for storage optimized instances—and deliver up to twice as many vCPUs and memory compared to prior generation instances. Powered by 3rd generation AWS Nitro SSDs, these instances achieve up to 65% better real-time storage performance, up to 50% lower storage I/O latency, and 65% lower storage I/O latency variability compared to I3en instances. Additionally, the 16KB torn write prevention feature, enables customers to eliminate performance bottlenecks for database workloads.

I8ge instances are high-density storage-optimized instances, for workloads that demand rapid local storage with high random read/write performance and consistently low latency for accessing large data sets. These versatile instances are offered in eleven different sizes including 2 metal sizes, providing flexibility to match customers computational needs. They deliver up to 180 Gbps of network performance bandwidth, and 60 Gbps of dedicated bandwidth for Amazon Elastic Block Store (EBS), ensuring fast and efficient data transfer for the most demanding applications.
