Analysis
The p5.48xlarge is a gpu instance instance in the p5 series with 192 vCPUs and 2048 GiB of memory on AMD EPYC 7R13 (up to 2.95 GHz), which makes it very memory-heavy at 10.67 GiB of memory per vCPU.
Running it in N. Virginia instead of São Paulo saves $27,322 a month per instance: $55.04/hour against $92.47/hour, a 68% spread. It is not offered in Ireland and Singapore, so plan around that if you need a presence there.
It carries 8 GPUs with 640 GB HBM3 of GPU memory, so most of the price is the accelerator rather than the CPUs. It has local instance storage (8 x 3840 GB SSD), which is fast but lost when the instance stops. Network: 3200 Gigabit.
It is the cheapest of the 3 processor variants AWS sells at this size and generation. The p5e.48xlarge on AMD EPYC 7R13 costs 15% more, and the p5en.48xlarge also sit above it.
Per vCPU it is one of the dearer gpu instance types: 84% of the 78 current types in the family cost less than its $0.2867 per vCPU-hour. The premium mostly pays for the accelerators. On demand it is $55.04/hour in US East (N. Virginia), or $40,179 for a 730-hour month.
