Amazon EC2 M9g Instances

Airbnb is a leading travel company offering unique stays, experiences, and services that make it possible for guests to connect with communities in a more authentic way.

"AWS Graviton5-based Amazon EC2 instances are some of the fastest EC2 instances we have ever tested. In our performance tests, conducted using Airbnb's production search workloads, we are seeing improvements of up to 25% over other system architectures of the same generation, and up to 20% compared to prior generation Graviton4 instances. We are especially impressed with P95 latency for our critical workloads, helping to provide a consistent experience for Airbnb guests and hosts."

Denis Sheahan, Principal Performance Engineer, Airbnb

"Running EDA in the cloud allows us to scale compute to match the complexity of modern silicon design while improving engineering efficiency. AWS Graviton5, powered by Arm Neoverse V3, delivers up to 40% speedup for Arm’s own design and verification flows. That performance helps us bring the next generation of Arm processors to market faster and showcases the virtuous cycle of innovation between Arm and AWS.”

Karima Dridi, VP Productivity Engineering, Arm

“Atlassian has migrated more than 3000 EC2 instances for Jira and Confluence to AWS Graviton4-based instances. In our testing of Jira on AWS Graviton5-based M9g instances, we observed 30% higher performance and 20% lower latency compared to the prior generation and we look forward to AWS Graviton5 general availability.”

Tibo Delor, Principal Engineer, Atlassian

Honeycomb is an observability platform that provides real-time visibility and troubleshooting for cloud applications.

“Honeycomb saw out of the box 20-25% lower latency and 15% less CPU utilization for our ingest workload running on AWS Graviton5, compared to AWS Graviton4. After optimizing for throughput by reducing the CPU available to each task until identical latency was observed, we saw a total of 36% better throughput per core on Graviton5, compared to Graviton4.”

Liz Fong-Jones, Field CTO, Honeycomb.io

“We’ve been working closely with AWS on running SAP HANA Cloud on AWS Graviton since 2023 and have seen significant performance improvements with each new Graviton generation. With AWS Graviton5-based Amazon EC2 M9g instances, we’ve observed a stunning 35-60% increase in the performance of our OLTP queries on SAP HANA Cloud - a phenomenal advancement in a single generation. We’re thrilled to be adopting the latest generation AWS Graviton instances for our SAP HANA Cloud deployment, as we expect this will deliver even greater performance gains.”

Stefan Bäuerle, Senior Vice President, Head of SAP HANA & Persistency

Calibre is Siemens EDA's industry-leading physical verification platform and the semiconductor industry's most trusted signoff solution. Serving as the final quality gatekeeper before manufacturing, Calibre performs critical DRC, LVS, and PERC verification, and advanced 3D IC multiphysics analysis to ensure chip designs meet foundry requirements at nanometer scales.

"The future of semiconductor physical verification lies in cloud-enabled, high-performance computing. Our deep collaboration with AWS positions Calibre at the forefront of this transformation, and we're excited to announce support for Calibre on Arm-based AWS Graviton processors. Today's deployments on AWS Graviton4 deliver 20% performance improvements and up to 30% compute cost reductions vs. other comparable AWS instances, and early AWS Graviton5 testing shows up to additional 30%+ performance boost, unlocking verification capabilities and faster time-to-market. Together, AWS and Siemens are building the infrastructure that will power the next decade of semiconductor innovation.”

Juan Rey, Senior Vice President and General Manager, Calibre Segment, Siemens EDA, Siemens Digital Industries Software

“Snowflake’s benchmarking of AWS Graviton5-based Amazon EC2 instances showed impressive performance gains across a wide range of workloads. Compared to prior generations, Graviton5 demonstrated notable improvements in compute efficiency, memory bandwidth, and overall throughput—delivering more than 30% performance boost on representative Snowflake workloads. These results highlight the continued evolution of AWS Graviton and its ability to power modern, data-intensive platforms efficiently. Graviton5’s strong balance of performance and energy efficiency aligns with Snowflake’s commitment to delivering high-performance, cost-effective, and sustainable data processing at scale. We’re excited to bring these advancements to our customers as we expand support for Graviton5 in future Snowflake releases.”

“For over a decade since the inception of Annapurna Labs, Synopsys and AWS have collaborated to enable Amazon’s custom silicon development. Synopsys EDA tools such as VCS, PrimeTime, Fusion Compiler, and IC Validator support on AWS Graviton have been critical to the design of Graviton as well as Nitro and Trainium chips. Today, Synopsys and AWS are expanding Graviton support to accelerate our customers’ semiconductor innovation. Compared to Graviton4, early results on Graviton5 show up to 35% runtime improvements for Fusion Compiler and PrimeTime. In addition, our joint partner Arm is observing up to 40% faster runtimes for Synopsys VCS on Graviton5 relative to previous generations.”
