Analysis
The m8g.24xlarge is a general purpose instance in the m8g series with 96 vCPUs and 384 GiB of memory on AWS Graviton4 (up to 2.7 GHz), which makes it balanced at 4 GiB of memory per vCPU.
Running it in Mumbai instead of São Paulo saves $2,765 a month per instance: $3.08/hour against $6.87/hour, a 123% spread.
It is the cheapest of the 5 processor variants AWS sells at this size and generation. The m8id.24xlarge on Intel Xeon Scalable (Granite Rapids) costs 45% more, and the m8i.24xlarge, the m8gd.24xlarge and the m8a.24xlarge also sit above it.
At $4.31/hour on demand in US East (N. Virginia), about $3,145 a month, the m8g.24xlarge is one of the cheaper ways to buy general purpose capacity: only 20% of the 354 current general purpose types cost less per vCPU-hour than its $0.0449.
The newer m9g.24xlarge on AWS Graviton5 is 9.0% dearer at $4.70/hour.
Looking beyond its own line, 3 of 28 current types with 96 vCPUs and similar memory are cheaper. The cheapest of those is the hpc6a.48xlarge on AMD EPYC 7R13 at $2.88/hour.
It is size 9 of 10 in the m8g series. Stepping up to the m8g.48xlarge gives 192 vCPUs and 768 GiB for $3,145 more a month. Dropping to the m8g.16xlarge saves $1,048 a month.
