It was not a good idea to change the standard name for the metal instance. All instance families have always used "metal". No suffix was necessary (...) Please don't re:invent new conventions that break existing data.

M7a is pricey! (...) That is almost 35% higher cost than M6a! That is the biggest price increase on the next instance type I remember (...) AMD instances used to be 10% cheaper than equivalent generation Intel. M6a is about 11% cheaper than M6i but M7a is 15% more expensive than M7i.

The new general-purpose instances are priced higher than the previous generation AMD M6a and the latest Intel M7i instances.

The days of things only ever getting cheaper (by the hour) seem to be over.

AMD instances used to be 10% cheaper than equivalent generation Intel. M6a is about 11% cheaper than M6i but M7a is 15% more expensive than M7i.

Since the article mentioned that m7a doesn't use SMT anymore, I was wondering how these match up on physical core count.

Fantastic article! Looking forward to putting our db product at work through some tpch benchmarks on the new generation now that both AMD and Intel instances are available.

Modernizing your AWS deployment to M7a can mean significant savings on operating costs. When moving from M6i to M7a customers can see up to 2x performance uplift and save 37% on Cloud OPEX on average.

Wow! Great benchmark with great info. I'm collecting some articles to convince my employer to pay for a subscription. This one just hit the top of that list. Great work.

Organizations migrating from an on-premises data center, or another cloud provider, to AWS also benefit from selecting M7a instances. Here again, choosing AMD can deliver significant savings compared to the latest Intel-based M7i instance.

The m5 instance type is similar, but for more consistent workloads. It has a nice balance of CPU, memory, and disk.

The m5 instance type is similar, but for more consistent workloads. It has a nice balance of CPU, memory, and disk. It’s not hard to see why almost half of EC2 workloads [are on “m” instances].
