Intel and AWS 8th Gen Amazon EC2 instances using Xeon 6 are now available, offering high performance and faster memory bandwidth in the cloud.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Intel\u00ae Xeon\u00ae 6 processors with P-cores power the new Amazon EC2 R8i and R8i-flex instances on AWS, delivering top performance and the fastest memory bandwidth among comparable Intel processors. These instances result from years of Intel-AWS collaboration, combining advanced silicon and integrated software optimizations for scalable, cost-efficient cloud infrastructure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cThe 8th Gen EC2 instances powered by Intel Xeon 6 mark a milestone in our collaboration with AWS,<\/em>\u201d said Ronak Singhal<\/strong>, senior fellow at Intel. \u201cTogether, we\u2019ve built infrastructure that accelerates AI, boosts memory performance, and simplifies deployment \u2013 helping customers gain faster insights and higher ROI<\/em>.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n With increasing reliance on real-time data, AI, and compliance-intensive workloads, high-performance cloud infrastructure is essential. Intel Xeon 6 offers a flexible, general-purpose compute platform, reducing dependency on specialized accelerators and simplifying deployment for varied use cases.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cOur customers need infrastructure that matches the pace of their demanding workloads,<\/em>\u201d said Nishant Mehta<\/strong>, VP of EC2 Product Management at AWS. \u201cThe new R8i and R8i-flex instances provide 2.5x more memory bandwidth and 15% better price performance versus previous generations, helping customers maximize performance while lowering costs.<\/em>\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n Industry leaders like Netflix and CrowdStrike are piloting Xeon 6 instances for AI-driven and cloud-native applications, reporting gains in compute throughput, AI performance, and infrastructure efficiency.<\/p>\n\n\n\nWhy It Matters<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n
