Amazon MSK now extends support for Graviton3 based M7G instances in Europe (Paris) region
You can now create Amazon Managed Streaming for Apache Kafka (Amazon MSK) provisioned clusters running on AWS Graviton3-based M7g instances or upgrade your existing x-86 based based M5 or T3 instances and replace them with AWS Graviton3-based M7G instances with a single click of a button in the Europe (Paris) AWS Region.
AWS Graviton3 processor based M7G instances on Amazon MSK provisioned clusters allows you to achieve up to 24% compute cost savings and up to 29% higher write and read throughput over comparable MSK clusters running on M5 instances. Additionally, these instances lower energy consumption by up to 60% than comparable instances, making your Kafka clusters more environmentally sustainable.
Please refer to our blog for more information on the price/ performance improvements of M7g instances and the Amazon MSK pricing page for information on pricing. To get started, you can create new clusters using M7G instances or update your existing clusters to M7G brokers using the AWS Management Console, and read our developer guide for more information.
