Amazon EC2 M7g Instances
A price performance choice for general purpose workloads in Amazon EC2
Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2) M7g instances, powered by the latest generation Amazon Graviton3 processors, provide the a price performance choice in Amazon EC2 for general purpose workloads. M7g instances are ideal for applications built on open-source software such as application servers, microservices, gaming servers, mid-size data stores, and caching fleets. They offer up to 25% better performance over the sixth-generation Amazon Graviton2-based M6g instances. M7g instances feature Double Data Rate 5 (DDR5) memory, which provides 50% higher memory bandwidth compared to DDR4 memory to enable high-speed access to data in memory.
Benefits
A price performance choice for general purpose workloads in Amazon EC2
M7g instances deliver up to 25% better performance over Graviton2-based M6g. They are ideal for general purpose applications, such as application servers, microservices, gaming servers, mid-size data stores, and caching fleets.
Enhanced security and maximized resource efficiency
M7g instances are built on the Amazon Nitro System. The Amazon Nitro System is a combination of dedicated hardware and a lightweight hypervisor that delivers isolated multi-tenancy, private networking, and fast local storage. Amazon Graviton3 processors offer enhanced security with always-on memory encryption, dedicated caches for every vCPU, and support for pointer authentication. These instances also support encrypted Amazon Elastic Block Store (EBS) volumes by default.
Extensive software support
Amazon Graviton-based instances are supported by many Linux operating systems, including Amazon Linux 2, Red Hat Enterprise Linux, SUSE, and Ubuntu. Many popular applications and services for security, monitoring and management, containers, and continuous integration and delivery (CI/CD) from Amazon Web Services and software partners also support Amazon Graviton-based instances.
Features
Powered by Amazon Graviton3 processors
Amazon Graviton3 is the latest generation of Amazon-designed Arm-based processors that provide a price performance choice for workloads in Amazon EC2. Amazon Graviton3 processors deliver up to 25% better compute performance, up to 2x higher floating-point performance, and up to 2x faster cryptographic workload performance compared to Amazon Graviton2 processors. Additionally, Graviton3 processors deliver up to 3x better performance compared to Graviton2 processors for machine learning (ML) workloads, including support for bfloat16.
High-performance interfaces
M7g instances use leading edge DDR5 memory to provide 50% higher bandwidth compared to M6g. M7g instances have support for Elastic Fabric Adapter (EFA) in the 16xlarge and bare-metal sizes. M7gd have EFA support in the 16xlarge size.
Built on the Amazon Nitro System
The Amazon Nitro System is a rich collection of building blocks that offloads many of the traditional virtualization functions to dedicated hardware and software. It delivers high performance, high availability, and high security, reducing virtualization overhead.
