c6g.xlarge

The other difference is memory, your t2.micro instance has 1GB memory whereas the c6g.medium has 2GB of memory allocated, which also increases the price. Then there is the CPU architecture which is ARM, which won't be able to run x86 compiled applications natively and some applications will need to be recompiled specifically to run successfully.

I am going to update them to c6gxlarge and x6glarge respectively for cheaper prices and better performance.

Overall we are happy with performance, compared to old stack we are at around 10% of the cost and I think our savings was more than 2x compared to x86 after locking in some rates. R6gd.metal (16x) vs R5d.metal (24x)

EC2 Instance Savings Plans would simply apply to your new instance size (as long as it's in the same family & generation... like... M5 for example). Same with Compute Savings Plans - they just apply to your EC2 running instances regardless.

Savings Plans are much more flexible and are better for most users.

So are the instance size flexibility and instance size modification for standard RIs totally different things? From which, I think instance size flexibilty is something that is done by AWS automatically using the normalization factors, while the modifications has to be done manually. Correct me if I am wrong here!

I have a on-demand c6g.xlarge EC2 instance running. Now I have decided to purchase a Standard RI or an EC2 Instance Savings Plan. But before buying that, I would like few things.

The answer depends on the OS of the underlying instance.

regarding the third question, the first RI has 6 months left, while the second RI I purchase will have 3 years left before it expires, so will the validity period of both remain separate? i.e. after first RI expires, will I receive discount (50%) from the second RI I purchased?

The c5 instance type has a high ratio of compute/CPU versus memory. If you have a compute-intensive application — maybe scientific modelling, intensive machine learning, or multiplayer gaming — these instances are a good choice.

Ah, I'm having the same problem! Which C series did you pick?
