Analysis
The u7i-8tb.112xlarge is a memory optimized instance in the u7i-8tb series with 448 vCPUs and 8192 GiB of memory on Intel Xeon Scalable (Sapphire Rapids) (up to 2.9 GHz), which makes it very memory-heavy at 18.29 GiB of memory per vCPU.
Within the same generation and size, the u7i-6tb.112xlarge on Intel Xeon Scalable (Sapphire Rapids) costs $62.79/hour, 25% less ($15,279 a month).
Running it in N. Virginia instead of São Paulo saves $36,378 a month per instance: $83.72/hour against $134/hour, a 60% spread. It is not offered in Canada Central, Sydney and Tokyo, so plan around that if you need a presence there.
Per vCPU it is one of the dearer memory optimized types: 93% of the 385 current types in the family cost less than its $0.1869 per vCPU-hour. The premium mostly pays for the very fast networking. On demand it is $83.72/hour in US East (N. Virginia), or $61,116 for a 730-hour month.
Looking beyond its own line, 2 of 3 current types with 448 vCPUs and similar memory are cheaper. The cheapest of those is the u-6tb1.112xlarge on Intel Xeon Scalable (Skylake) at $54.60/hour.
Windows Server roughly adds 25% to the bill at $104/hour, because the licence is charged per vCPU.
