The C8ine instance family, generally available since March 24, 2025, is powered by Intel Xeon 6 processors (Granite Rapids) such as the 6975P-C model. These networking-optimized instances provide up to 200 Gbps of network bandwidth and support for Elastic Fabric Adapter, making them ideal for tightly coupled HPC workloads. They do not feature local instance storage but offer enhanced EBS-optimized throughput and high memory bandwidth to support data-intensive compute tasks.
