Per hour on Windows, in each type's cheapest region. Typical spot: per pricing run of the last 7 days, the cheapest zone's spot price, averaged, as the finder shows it with that region selected. On-demand: the same region's price. Per vCPU-hour: the spot price, or without spot the on-demand price, per vCPU. Every region is under Prices by region.

The C5d instance family, released in May 2018, is a compute-optimized type featuring the Intel Xeon Platinum 8275CL CPU @ 3.00GHz and other 2nd Gen Intel Xeon Scalable processors. It includes fast, low-latency local NVMe SSD instance storage, with up to 3.6TB on the largest sizes. Built on the AWS Nitro System, these instances provide enhanced networking of up to 25 Gbps and are suited for workloads needing high-speed temporary data.

Atom feed for new regions

Each type's regions on Windows, cheapest first, with the same figures as the Prices table, and its price history: the daily mean of every zone and pricing run, over the last 15 UTC days. Each price column is tinted from its cheapest region (green) to its most expensive (red).
