Cloud Mercato tested CPU performance using a range of encryption speed tests:
Cloud Mercato's tested the I/O performance of this instance using a 100GB General Purpose SSD. Below are the results:
I/O rate testing is conducted with local and block storages attached to the instance. Cloud Mercato uses the well-known open-source tool FIO. To express IOPS the following parametersare used: 4K block, random access, no filesystem (except for write access with root volume and avoidance of cache and buffer.

High memory instances use EBS in the same way as X1. If there is an outage of the dedicated host, a new one is automatically made available to the AWS Account. In addition, if dedicated host recovery is enabled, the u- instance will automatically get restarted on the replacement host in a similar manner to EC2 auto recovery. We don’t provide an SLA for replacing the failed instance but we ensure there is spare capacity in each AZ. Typically we have seen it take around 15 – 30 mins for the recovery action. Once the recovery happens and the instance is started, the HANA DB needs to load back into memory. With a u-6tb1 with EBS io1 volumes, this takes ~ 30 minutes
