AWS Compute Optimizer now supports 153 new EC2 instance types as well as multi-attached EBS volumes
AWS Compute Optimizer now supports 153 additional Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (Amazon EC2) instance types. The newly supported instance types include the latest generation general-purpose instances (M7g, M7i, M7i-flex, M7a, M6a), compute optimized instances (C7gn, C7g), memory optimized instances (R7g, R7iz, R6id, R6a, X2iezn), storage optimized instances (I4g, I4i), and high-performance-computing (HPC) optimized instances (Hpc7g, Hpc6id). This expands the total EC2 instance types supported by Compute Optimizer to 636. Additionally, Compute Optimizer now delivers Elastic Block Store (EBS) volume recommendations for EBS volumes that are attached to multiple EC2 instances simultaneously.

Additionally, Compute Optimizer now delivers Elastic Block Store (EBS) volume recommendations for EBS volumes that are attached to multiple EC2 instances simultaneously.
The newly supported EC2 instance types include M7i instances with 4th Gen Intel Xeon Scalable processors, offering up to 15% better performance compared to older Intel processors, and M7a instances with 4th Gen AMD EPYC processors, delivering up to 50% greater performance compared to older generation AMD processors. With these added instance types and EBS volumes, Compute Optimizer helps you find additional cost and performance optimization opportunities across a wider range of EC2 instance types and EBS volumes, ensuring high-performance workloads at minimal cost. You can use this feature in the following AWS Regions: US East (Ohio), US East (N. Virginia), US West (N. California), US West (Oregon), Asia Pacific (Mumbai), Asia Pacific (Seoul), Asia Pacific (Singapore), Asia Pacific (Sydney), Asia Pacific (Tokyo), Canada (Central), Europe (Frankfurt), Europe (Ireland), Europe (London), Europe (Paris), Europe (Stockholm), and South America (São Paulo).
