Analysis
The g4dn.4xlarge is a gpu instance instance in the g4dn series with 16 vCPUs and 64 GiB of memory on Intel Xeon Family (up to 2.5 GHz), which makes it balanced at 4 GiB of memory per vCPU.
Within the same generation and size, the g4ad.4xlarge on AMD EPYC 7R32 costs $0.8670/hour, 28% less ($246 a month).
It carries 1 GPU with 16 GB of GPU memory, so most of the price is the accelerator rather than the CPUs. It has local instance storage (225 GB NVMe SSD), which is fast but lost when the instance stops. Network: Up to 25 Gigabit.
Running it in N. Virginia instead of São Paulo saves $615 a month per instance: $1.20/hour against $2.05/hour, a 70% spread.
It is size 3 of 6 in the g4dn series. Stepping up to the g4dn.8xlarge gives 32 vCPUs and 128 GiB for $710 more a month. Dropping to the g4dn.2xlarge saves $330 a month. Unit price is not flat across the series ($0.0680 to $0.1315 per vCPU-hour), so the size changes the rate you pay.
On demand it costs $1.20/hour in US East (N. Virginia), $879 a month if left running, which puts it mid-table for gpu instance types at the 29th percentile per vCPU ($0.0752 per vCPU-hour) and the 35th percentile per GiB ($0.0188 per GiB-hour).
