EC2 x8g instance prices

The x8g series is a memory optimized EC2 line running on AWS Graviton4. It has 10 sizes, from the x8g.medium with 1 vCPU and 16 GiB to the x8g.48xlarge with 192 vCPUs and 3072 GiB, and it is very memory-heavy with a median of 16.0 GiB per vCPU.

In US East the Linux on-demand price runs from $0.0977/hour to $18.76/hour, or $71.32 to $13,694 a month. The median price per vCPU-hour across the series is $0.0977. These are Arm (Graviton) instances, which need arm64 builds of your software.

Every size costs the same $0.0977 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 6 of the 12 regions we track.
