Analysis
The i7ie.xlarge is a storage optimized instance in the i7ie series with 4 vCPUs and 32 GiB of memory on Intel Xeon Scalable (Emerald Rapids) (up to 3.2 GHz), which makes it memory-heavy at 8 GiB of memory per vCPU.
Within the same generation and size, the i7i.xlarge on Intel Xeon Scalable (Emerald Rapids) costs $0.3775/hour, 27% less ($104 a month).
Per vCPU it is one of the dearer storage optimized types: 84% of the 90 current types in the family cost less than its $0.1300 per vCPU-hour. The premium mostly pays for the local NVMe disk. On demand it is $0.5198/hour in US East (N. Virginia), or $379 for a 730-hour month.
Running it in N. Virginia instead of São Paulo saves $225 a month per instance: $0.5198/hour against $0.8280/hour, a 59% spread.
Looking beyond its own line, 43 of 45 current types with 4 vCPUs and similar memory are cheaper. The cheapest of those is the r6g.xlarge on AWS Graviton2 at $0.2016/hour.
It has local instance storage (1 x 2500 GB NVMe SSD), which is fast but lost when the instance stops. Network: Up to 25 Gigabit.
It is size 2 of 9 in the i7ie series. Stepping up to the i7ie.2xlarge gives 8 vCPUs and 64 GiB for $379 more a month. Dropping to the i7ie.large saves $190 a month.
