Analysis
The c8g.24xlarge is a compute optimized instance in the c8g series with 96 vCPUs and 192 GiB of memory on AWS Graviton4 (up to 2.7 GHz), which makes it compute-heavy at 2 GiB of memory per vCPU.
Running it in Mumbai instead of São Paulo saves $2,390 a month per instance: $2.59/hour against $5.86/hour, a 126% spread.
It is the cheapest of the 5 processor variants AWS sells at this size and generation. The c8id.24xlarge on Intel Xeon Scalable (Granite Rapids) costs 39% more, and the c8i.24xlarge, the c8gd.24xlarge and the c8a.24xlarge also sit above it.
At $3.83/hour on demand in US East (N. Virginia), about $2,795 a month, the c8g.24xlarge is one of the cheaper ways to buy compute optimized capacity: only 17% of the 291 current compute optimized types cost less per vCPU-hour than its $0.0399.
The newer c9g.24xlarge on AWS Graviton5 is 9.0% dearer at $4.17/hour.
Looking beyond its own line, 2 of 22 current types with 96 vCPUs and similar memory are cheaper. The cheapest of those is the c6a.24xlarge on AMD EPYC 7R13 at $3.67/hour.
It is size 9 of 10 in the c8g series. Stepping up to the c8g.48xlarge gives 192 vCPUs and 384 GiB for $2,795 more a month. Dropping to the c8g.16xlarge saves $932 a month.
