Now available: Amazon EC2 M9g and M9gd instances powered by new AWS Graviton5 processors | Amazon Web Services

ClickHouse saw a 36% performance boost compared to M8g, with zero code changes. Honeycomb achieved 36% better throughput per core compared to Graviton4, across a 6-month A/B test of production observability workloads. HubSpot deployed M9g for MySQL databases and saw query duration drop by up to 60%. Today, M9g instances are generally available, alongside the new M9gd instances for customers who need high-speed, low-latency local NVMe SSD storage. Both are powered by Graviton5, the most powerful and most energy efficient processor AWS has ever built.
