How potential performance upside with AWS Graviton helps reduce your costs further

This article explains how AWS Graviton processors deliver cost savings beyond lower pricing through improved performance and reduced compute hours. It highlights enhancements to the Graviton Savings Dashboard (GSD) for modeling total savings potential.

• AWS Graviton instances offer up to 40% better price performance versus non-Graviton EC2 instances
• Customer examples: Pinterest achieved 47% cost savings; SAP improved price performance by 35%; Sprinklr reduced ML inference costs by 25%
• GSD now includes Normalized Instance Hours (NIH) slider to model savings from both pricing and performance improvements
• Dashboard visualizations show base pricing savings, estimated additional performance savings, and total potential savings
• Enhanced details table breaks down savings by instance family in dollars and percentages
• Actual performance improvements require workload-specific testing using AWS optimization and performance runbooks

The enhanced GSD helps organizations quantify and prioritize AWS Graviton migrations by modeling combined savings from lower pricing and reduced compute hours.
