Amazon EC2 C7i instances are now available in the Israel (Tel Aviv) region
Starting today, Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (Amazon EC2) C7i instances powered by custom 4th Gen Intel Xeon Scalable processors (code-named Sapphire Rapids) are available in the Israel (Tel Aviv) Region. C7i instances are supported by custom Intel processors, available only on AWS. C7i instances deliver up to 15% better price-performance versus C6i instances and are a great choice for all compute-intensive workloads, such as batch processing, distributed analytics, ad-serving, and video encoding. C7i instances offer larger instance sizes, up to 48xlarge, and two bare metal sizes (metal-24xl,
AWS continues its global expansion, bringing its latest generation of compute instances to new regions to meet increasing demand for cloud services and competitive positioning.
The availability of advanced compute instances in strategically important regions like Tel Aviv signifies the ongoing geographic distribution of high-performance computing infrastructure, attracting local tech ecosystems.
Local businesses and government entities in Israel now have access to AWS's latest compute-optimized instances domestically, potentially reducing latency and fostering innovation with improved price-performance.
