c5d.xlarge

Part of the C5D Compute Optimized family — High-performance processors for compute-intensive applications.

Name:cCompute Optimizedc = Compute OptimizedOptimized for compute-bound applications that benefit from high-performance processors (web servers, batch processing, gaming servers, and video encoding).55th Generation5 = 5th GenerationAWS 5th generation hardware platform with updated CPU/system architecture.dDirect-Attached NVMe SSDd = Direct-Attached NVMe SSDEquipped with physical high-speed NVMe SSD instance store volumes attached locally to the host server for temporary scratch and caching.xlargeExtra Large (1x)xlarge = Extra Large (1x)4 vCPUs • 8 GB RAM • 100 GB NVMe SSD • Up to 10 Gbps Network

Matched on vCPU and memory, then CPU vendor, then rate; a larger size is offered only when nothing is the same size. On-demand Linux only: Spot and commitments work differently on the two clouds, so they aren't compared here.
