A Google Cloud Compute Engine machine type in the M2 machine series.
Google's catalog has no Spot price for m2-ultramem2x-96.
On AWS
The nearest AWS machines to m2-ultramem2x-96 by vCPU and memory, at On-demand Linux rates in Northern Virginia (us-east4 ↔ us-east-1). m2-ultramem2x-96 isn't sold in any region that has an AWS counterpart, so this compares Northern Virginia, where it isn't sold either.

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.
How this price is built
Google bills a VM by its parts, each with its own SKU. These are the parts of the On-demand Linux rate in Iowa (us-central1). The total is the published price; the parts add up to it.
| Part | SKU | Google's rate | Quantity | Per hour |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| vCPU | Memory-optimized Instance Core running in Americas AE53-03EE-A981 | $0.0348 per hour | 96 vCPU | $3.3408 |
| Memory | Memory-optimized Instance Ram running in Americas 9DFC-84DE-A1D6 | $0.0051 per GiB-hour | 1,250 GiB | $6.3750 |

Windows adds the Windows Server licence: 96 vCPU × $0.046 per hour (SKU 92D2-8A8F-DF54) = $4.4160/hr, the same in every region and on every basis.

What the prices include
- Regions. m2-ultramem2x-96 is priced in the 2 regions where Compute Engine runs it in at least one zone. It may run in only some of a region's zones.
- Windows. The Windows Server licence costs $0.046 per visible vCPU per hour. Spot and commitments don't discount it, so it's added at the full rate on every basis.
- Commitments. The 1-yr and 3-yr rates are resource-based committed use discounts: you commit to an amount of M2 vCPU and memory in one region and pay for it whether you use it or not. Flexible (spend-based) commitments discount less and aren't shown.
- Sustained use. M2 earns a sustained-use discount of up to 30% off the On-demand rate when a VM runs the whole month. It starts once the VM runs more than a quarter of the month, arrives as a monthly credit, doesn't apply to usage a commitment covers, and only self-serve billing accounts get it. The prices here don't include it.
