Analysis
The m7i.48xlarge is a general purpose instance in the m7i series with 192 vCPUs and 768 GiB of memory on Intel Xeon Scalable (Sapphire Rapids) (up to 3.2 GHz), which makes it balanced at 4 GiB of memory per vCPU.
It is the cheapest of the 2 processor variants AWS sells at this size and generation. The m7a.48xlarge on AMD EPYC 9R14 costs 15% more, and no others also sit above it.
Running it in N. Virginia instead of São Paulo saves $4,194 a month per instance: $9.68/hour against $15.42/hour, a 59% spread.
Reserving it for a year with no upfront payment cuts the Linux rate to $6.40/hour, which beats on demand once it runs more than 66% of the time; three years brings it to $4.39/hour, 55% below on demand. Windows Server roughly doubles the bill at $18.51/hour, because the licence is charged per vCPU.
On demand it costs $9.68/hour in US East (N. Virginia), $7,064 a month if left running, which puts it mid-table for general purpose types at the 39th percentile per vCPU ($0.0504 per vCPU-hour) and the 39th percentile per GiB ($0.0126 per GiB-hour).
The newer m8i.48xlarge on Intel Xeon Scalable (Granite Rapids) is 5.0% dearer at $10.16/hour.
