The vt1 series is a media accelerator instances EC2 line running on Intel Xeon Platinum 8259CL. It has 3 sizes, from the vt1.3xlarge with 12 vCPUs and 24 GiB to the vt1.24xlarge with 96 vCPUs and 192 GiB, and it is compute-heavy with a median of 2.0 GiB per vCPU.

In US East the Linux on-demand price runs from $0.6500/hour to $5.20/hour, or $475 to $3,796 a month. The median price per vCPU-hour across the series is $0.0542.

Every size costs the same $0.0542 per vCPU-hour, so price scales linearly: doubling the size doubles the bill, and two smaller instances cost exactly as much as one larger one. That makes it easy to start small and resize later without changing your unit cost. All sizes are sold in the same 4 of the 12 regions we track.
