Analysis
The m7gd.12xlarge is a general purpose instance in the m7gd series with 48 vCPUs and 192 GiB of memory on AWS Graviton3 (up to 2.5 GHz), which makes it balanced at 4 GiB of memory per vCPU.
Within the same generation and size, the m7g.12xlarge on AWS Graviton3 costs $1.96/hour, 24% less ($441 a month). The other variants are the m7i-flex.12xlarge at $2.30, the m7i.12xlarge at $2.42 and the m7a.12xlarge at $2.78.
Running it in Mumbai instead of São Paulo saves $1,736 a month per instance: $1.70/hour against $4.08/hour, a 140% spread. It is not offered in Canada Central, so plan around that if you need a presence there.
Compared with the previous generation, it costs 18% more than the m6gd.12xlarge on AWS Graviton2 ($287 more a month per instance), in exchange for the newer processor. The newer m8gd.12xlarge on AWS Graviton4 is 8.0% dearer at $2.77/hour.
It has local instance storage (2 x 1425 GB NVMe SSD), which is fast but lost when the instance stops. Network: 22500 Megabit.
On demand it costs $2.56/hour in US East (N. Virginia), $1,871 a month if left running, which puts it mid-table for general purpose types at the 46th percentile per vCPU ($0.0534 per vCPU-hour) and the 46th percentile per GiB ($0.0133 per GiB-hour).
