Amazon EC2 C8ine instances are now available in AWS Europe (Frankfurt) region
Starting today, Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (Amazon EC2) C8ine instances are available in the AWS Europe (Frankfurt) region. C8ine instances are powered by custom sixth generation Intel Xeon Scalable processors, available only on AWS. These instances feature the latest sixth generation AWS Nitro cards, delivering up to 43% higher performance compared to previous generation C6in instances. C8ine instances offer up to 2.5 times higher packet performance per vCPU versus prior generation network optimized instances, providing up to 2x higher network throughput for traffic going through Internet g
AWS continues its regular cadence of releasing new, more powerful EC2 instance types across its global regions to meet demand for higher performance compute.
The availability of C8ine instances in Europe (Frankfurt) provides regional customers with enhanced compute performance and network throughput, crucial for data-intensive applications and potentially for reducing latency and costs associated with cross-region data transfer.
Customers in the AWS Europe (Frankfurt) region now have access to significantly more powerful compute and network-optimized virtual machines, enabling improved execution of demanding workloads and potentially shifting regional compute strategies.
