They can connect customers’ Amazon Virtual Private Cloud (VPC), boot from Elastic Block Store (EBS) volumes, and uses EBS snapshots as well as Amazon Machine Images (AMIs). The new Mac2 instances integrates with other AWS services, including Amazon Elastic File System (EFS) for file storage, Auto Scaling and the Secrets Manager. They allow customers to run on-demand macOS workloads in the cloud which extends the flexibility, scalability and potential cost benefits of AWS to all Apple developers.Ĭustomers of the solution already include Pinterest, Intuit, FlipBoard, Twitch, and Goldman Sachs.ĪWS said these large customers have seen up to 75 per cent better build performance, up to 80 per cent lower build failure rates, and up to five times the number of parallel builds compared to running macOS on premises.ĭevelopers creating apps for iPhone, iPad, Mac, Apple Watch, Apple TV, and Safari can provision and access macOS environments within minutes and scale capacity as needed. ![]() Key workloads to run on new EC2 Mac instancesĪmazon's EC2 Mac instances are designed to build, test, sign and publish applications for Apple platforms such as iOS, iPadOS, watchOS, tvOS, macOS, and Safari. “If you are a Mac developer and re-architecting your apps to natively support Macs with Apple silicon, you may now build and test your apps and take advantage of all the benefits of AWS,” said AWS’ Stormacq.ĪWS says developers building for iPhone, iPad, Apple Watch, and Apple TV will benefit from faster builds.ĭevelopment teams can provision and access macOS environments within minutes, dynamically scale capacity as needed, and benefit from pay-as-you-go pricing. With the new powerful M1 SoC, Mac2 delivers up to 60 per cent better price performance over the x86-based EC2 Mac instances for iPhone and Mac app build workloads, according to AWS. This pricing makes the new EC2 M1 Mac instances cheaper than the AWS Mac1 instance that are built around Apple’s earlier Intel-based Mac mini model, and cost about US$1.08 per hour to run. The Mac2 consists of the M1 System on Chip (SoC) with 8 processor cores, 8 graphics cores, 16 GB of memory, and a 16 core Apple Neural Engine. Cost: US$0.65 per hourĪt approximately $0.65 cents per hour, the new instances give users a dedicated host for about US$470 per month. In May, AWS launched the general availability of its Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2) C7g instances powered by in house designed Graviton3 processors.ĪWS also recently unveiled Amazon EC2 Hpc6a instances, a new instance that is purpose-built for tightly coupled high-performance computing (HPC) workloads.ĪWS’ innovation engine is helping to drive sales at the double-digit clip for the company.įor its recent first fiscal quarter, AWS generated sales of US$18.4 billion, representing a 37 percent spike in growth year over year.ĪWS is now running at an annualized revenue run rate of US$74 billion (NZ$120 billion), with no big roadblocks ahead to slow down its growth.įrom the cost of the new instances to the key workloads, CRN breaks down the five biggest features of the new Mac2 that developers, channel partners and customers need to know about. The Seattle-based cloud computing worldwide market leader has already launched a slew of new products and tools in 2022 for developers, technologists, channel partners and customers who use AWS. ![]() The new Mac2 instances are dedicated to Apple’s Mac mini computers which lets the Mac mini appear and behave like another EC2 instance.
