Today, AWS announces the general availability of the new Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (Amazon EC2) C7gn instances, powered by the latest-generation AWS Graviton processors. Amazon EC2 C7gn instances feature the new 5th generation AWS Nitro Cards and deliver the highest network bandwidth, the best packet-processing performance, and the best price performance for network-intensive workloads. C7gn instances offer up to 200 Gbps network bandwidth and up to 3x higher packet-processing performance per vCPU versus comparable current generation x86-based network optimized instances. Amazon EC2 C7gn instances are built on the AWS Nitro System. The Nitro System is a collection of AWS-designed hardware and software innovations that enables the delivery of efficient and flexible cloud services with enhanced security, isolated multi-tenancy, private networking, and fast local storage. Take advantage of the enhanced networking capabilities to scale performance and throughput while optimizing the cost of running network-intensive workloads. Workload examples include network virtual appliances, data analytics, and CPU-based artificial intelligence and machine learning (AI/ML) inference.

You can now target allocation of Amazon EC2 Dedicated Hosts to specific AWS Outpost hosts. With targeted Dedicated Host allocations, you can control the deployment location of your workloads on specific Outposts racks. This allows you to allocate Dedicated Hosts on physical servers closely located on the same Outposts rack to achieve low latency goals. You can also use this feature to spread workloads on hardware across multiple Outposts racks for additional resiliency.

AWS announces the general availability of Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (Amazon EC2) Hpc7g instances. Amazon EC2 Hpc7g instances are powered by AWS Graviton processors, which are custom Arm-based processors designed by AWS. Arm-based architectures are known for their higher core counts with better performance per watt and their energy efficiency owing to simple instructions (RISC) that generate less heat, offering better heat dissipation.

New research has found that the Arctic could be almost free of floating sea ice during summer by the 2030s – roughly a decade sooner than previously thought. The following infographic uses data from the National Snow and Ice Data Center to show how Arctic summer sea ice has followed a trend of decreasing its …
