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 M8azn instance family, generally available since February 12, 2026, features 5th Generation AMD EPYC processors (Turin) with a maximum frequency of 5.0 GHz. These high-frequency, general-purpose instances provide up to 200 Gbps of networking bandwidth and 60 Gbps of EBS bandwidth through the AWS Nitro System. Optimized for compute-intensive and latency-sensitive workloads like high-frequency trading and real-time analytics, they offer a 4:1 memory-to-vCPU ratio and utilize Amazon EBS for all storage requirements.

These families have no PassMark single-thread score yet, so they are not ranked.

6 regions with a price in the last 7 days. Select up to 4 to compare them in the price history charts under Prices by region.

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).
