Per hour on Linux/UNIX, 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 M8INE instance family, generally available since April 28, 2026, is powered by custom Intel Xeon 6975P-C processors (Granite Rapids) and the latest sixth-generation AWS Nitro cards. These network-optimized instances deliver up to 2.5 times higher packet performance and twice the network throughput of previous generations, making them ideal for virtual firewalls, load balancers, and 5G UPF workloads. They utilize EBS-only storage across a range of sizes from large to 12xlarge, providing high-speed connectivity and enhanced compute density for networking-intensive applications.

Network and EBS: peak bandwidth in Gbit/s, with the bandwidth the type sustains when it is lower. Local storage: the instance store, in decimal GB as AWS sizes it.

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

2 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 Linux/UNIX, 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).
