Amazon EC2 M6a Instances

General purpose instances powered by 3rd generation AMD EPYC processors

Why Amazon EC2 M6a Instances?

Amazon EC2 M6a instances are powered by 3rd generation AMD EPYC processors, and deliver up to 35% better price performance compared to M5a instances, and 10% lower cost than comparable x86-based EC2 instances. M6a instances feature a 4:1 ratio of memory to vCPU, just like M5a instances and support increased sizes up to 192 vCPUs per instance. These instances are SAP-Certified and are ideal for workloads such as backend servers supporting enterprise applications (e.g. Microsoft Exchange and SharePoint, SAP Business Suite, MySQL, Microsoft SQL Server, and PostgreSQL databases), multi-player gaming servers, caching fleets, as well as for application development environments.
