Starting today, Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (Amazon EC2) M7i-flex instances powered by custom 4th Gen Intel Xeon Scalable processors (code-named Sapphire Rapids) are available in AWS Asia Pacific (Melbourne) Region. These custom processors, available only on AWS, offer up to 15% better performance over comparable x86-based Intel processors utilized by other cloud providers.
M7i-flex instances are the easiest way for you to get price-performance benefits for a majority of general-purpose workloads. They deliver up to 19% better price-performance compared to M6i. M7i-flex instances offer the most common sizes, from large to 16xlarge, and are a great first choice for applications that don't fully utilize all compute resources such as web and application servers, virtual-desktops, batch-processing, and microservices. In addition, these instances support the new Intel Advanced Matrix Extensions (AMX) that accelerate matrix multiplication operations for applications such as CPU-based ML. For workloads that need larger instance sizes (up to 192 vCPUs and 768 GiB memory) or continuous high CPU usage, you can leverage M7i instances.
