Starting today, Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (Amazon EC2) Flex (C7i-flex, M7i-flex) instances powered by custom 4th Gen Intel Xeon Scalable processors (code-named Sapphire Rapids) are available in Asia Pacific (Thailand) and Mexico (Central) regions. These custom processors, available only on AWS, offer up to 15% better performance over comparable x86-based Intel processors utilized by other cloud providers.

Flex instances are the easiest way for you to get price-performance benefits for a majority of general-purpose and compute intensive workloads. C7i-flex and M7i-flex instances deliver up to 19% better price-performance compared to C6i and M6i instances respectively. These 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, microservices, databases, caches, and more. For workloads that need larger instance sizes (up to 192 vCPUs and 768 GiB memory) or continuous high CPU usage, you can leverage C7i and M7i instances.

C7i-flex instances are available in the following AWS Regions: US East (N. Virginia, Ohio), US West (N. California, Oregon), Europe (Frankfurt, Ireland, London, Paris, Spain, Stockholm), Canada (Central), Asia Pacific (Malaysia, Mumbai, Seoul, Singapore, Sydney, Thailand, Tokyo), Mexico (Central), South America (São Paulo), and AWS GovCloud (US-West).

M7i-flex instances are available in the following AWS Regions: US East (N. Virginia, Ohio), US West (N. California, Oregon), Europe (Frankfurt, Ireland, London, Paris, Spain, Stockholm), Canada (Central), Asia Pacific (Malaysia, Mumbai, Seoul, Singapore, Sydney, Thailand, Tokyo), Mexico (Central), South America (São Paulo), and the AWS GovCloud (US-East, US-West).
