Analysis
The m8ib.24xlarge is a general purpose instance in the m8ib series with 96 vCPUs and 384 GiB of memory on Intel Xeon Scalable (Granite Rapids) (up to 3.9 GHz), which makes it balanced at 4 GiB of memory per vCPU.
Within the same generation and size, the m8g.24xlarge on AWS Graviton4 costs $4.31/hour, 46% less ($2,709 a month), though switching means rebuilding software for arm64. The other variants are the m8i.24xlarge at $5.08, the m8gd.24xlarge at $5.54 and the m8a.24xlarge at $5.84.
Running it in N. Virginia instead of Tokyo saves $1,672 a month per instance: $8.02/hour against $10.31/hour, a 29% spread. It is not offered in Canada Central, São Paulo, London, Frankfurt, Mumbai, Singapore and Sydney, so plan around that if you need a presence there.
Per vCPU it is one of the dearer general purpose types: 87% of the 354 current types in the family cost less than its $0.0835 per vCPU-hour. The premium mostly pays for the very fast networking. On demand it is $8.02/hour in US East (N. Virginia), or $5,854 for a 730-hour month.
Looking beyond its own line, 23 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.
