Analysis
The m7gd.16xlarge is a general purpose instance in the m7gd series with 64 vCPUs and 256 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.16xlarge on AWS Graviton3 costs $2.61/hour, 24% less ($588 a month). The other variants are the m7i-flex.16xlarge at $3.06, the m7i.16xlarge at $3.23 and the m7a.16xlarge at $3.71.
Running it in Mumbai instead of São Paulo saves $2,315 a month per instance: $2.27/hour against $5.44/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.16xlarge on AWS Graviton2 ($383 more a month per instance), in exchange for the newer processor. The newer m8gd.16xlarge on AWS Graviton4 is 8.0% dearer at $3.69/hour.
It has local instance storage (2 x 1900 GB NVMe SSD), which is fast but lost when the instance stops. Network: 30 Gigabit.
On demand it costs $3.42/hour in US East (N. Virginia), $2,494 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).
