Starting today, Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (Amazon EC2) M9g and M9gd instances, powered by AWS Graviton5 processors, are generally available. AWS Graviton5 processors are the fifth generation of custom-designed AWS processors, delivering the best price performance for general purpose workloads running on Amazon EC2.
M9g instances serve a broad range of general-purpose workloads including application servers, microservices, gaming, caching, and containers, while also delivering the performance needed for agentic AI use cases like real-time reasoning, code generation, and multi-step orchestration.
M9gd instances offer local NVMe-based SSD block-level storage for customers that require high-speed, low-latency local storage, such as media processing, batch and log processing, and applications that need access to temporary storage including caches and scratch files.
M9g and M9gd instances deliver up to 25% better compute performance compared to AWS Graviton4-based M8g and M8gd instances. They are up to 30% faster for databases, up to 35% faster for web applications, and up to 35% faster for machine learning. These instances are built on the sixth-generation AWS Nitro System and are the first to feature the Nitro Isolation Engine, harnessing formal verification to provide mathematical assurance that customer workloads are isolated from each other and AWS operators, pioneering a new standard for mathematically proven cloud security
M9g and M9gd instances are available in US East (N. Virginia, Ohio), US West (Oregon), and EU (Frankfurt) regions. M9g and M9gd instances are available for purchase via Savings Plans, On-Demand, Spot instances, Dedicated instances, or Dedicated hosts.
Level up your compute with AWS Graviton and get started today.
