The Next Generation (I3en) of I/O-Optimized EC2 Instances

Because our customers are always (in Jeff Bezos’ words) “divinely discontent”, they want I/O-optimized instances with even more power & storage. New I3en Instances

Today I am happy to announce the I3en instances. Designed to meet these needs and to do an even better job of addressing the use cases that I mentioned above, these instances are powered by AWS-custom Intel Xeon Scalable (Skylake) processors with 3.1 GHz sustained all-core turbo performance, up to 60 TB of fast NVMe storage, and up to 100 Gbps of network bandwidth.
