The C7gn instances we introduced previously are now fully available for use. These instances are engineered for your most network-intensive applications, including firewalls, virtual routers, load balancers, and more, as well as data analytics and tightly-coupled cluster computing tasks. Powered by AWS Graviton3E processors, they offer support for network bandwidth of up to 200 Gbps.
Specifications
| Instance Name | vCPUs | Memory | Network Bandwidth | EBS Bandwidth |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| c7gn.medium | 1 | 2 GiB | up to 25 Gbps | up to 10 Gbps |
| c7gn.large | 2 | 4 GiB | up to 30 Gbps | up to 10 Gbps |
| c7gn.xlarge | 4 | 8 GiB | up to 40 Gbps | up to 10 Gbps |
| c7gn.2xlarge | 8 | 16 GiB | up to 50 Gbps | up to 10 Gbps |
| c7gn.4xlarge | 16 | 32 GiB | 50 Gbps | up to 10 Gbps |
| c7gn.8xlarge | 32 | 64 GiB | 100 Gbps | up to 20 Gbps |
| c7gn.12xlarge | 48 | 96 GiB | 150 Gbps | up to 30 Gbps |
| c7gn.16xlarge | 64 | 128 GiB | 200 Gbps | up to 40 Gbps |
The enhanced network bandwidth is enabled by the latest 5th generation AWS Nitro Card. Additionally, these instances provide the lowest Elastic Fabric Adapter (EFA) latency among current EC2 offerings.
In the infographic below, you can see how the C7gn instances and Graviton3E processors stack up against previous versions. The Graviton3E processors demonstrate noticeably improved memory bandwidth and compute performance over Graviton2 processors, as well as enhanced vector instruction performance compared to Graviton3 processors.
C7gn instances are now accessible in the US East (Ohio, N. Virginia), US West (Oregon), and Europe (Ireland) AWS Regions. They are available in On-Demand, Reserved Instance, Spot, and Savings Plan formats. Dedicated Instances and Dedicated Hosts are also offered.
