https://aws.amazon.com/polly/ AWS and AMD have collaborated to give customers more choice and value in cloud computing, starting with the first generation AMD EPYC™ processors in 2018 such as https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/aws/new-lower-cost-amd-powered-ec2-instances/, https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/aws/new-amd-epyc-powered-amazon-ec2-m5ad-and-r5ad-instances/, and https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/aws/now-available-amd-epyc-powered-amazon-ec2-t3a-instances. In 2020, we expanded the second generation AMD EPYC™ processors to include https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/aws/new-amazon-ec2-c5a-instances-powered-by-2nd-gen-amd-epyc-processors/ and recently https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/aws/new-amazon-ec2-g4ad-instances-featuring-amd-gpus-for-graphics-workloads/ combining the power of both second-generation AMD EPYC™ processors and AMD Radeon Pro GPUs. Today, I am happy to announce the general availability of https://aws.amazon.com/ec2/instance-types/m6a/ featuring the 3rd Gen AMD EPYC processors, running at frequencies up to 3.6 GHz to offer up to 35 percent price performance versus the previous generation M5a instances. You can launch M6a instances today in ten sizes in the AWS US East (N.

M6a instances expand the 6th generation general purpose instances portfolio and provide high-performance processing at 10 percent lower cost over comparable x86 instances.
