t3 Family :
Amazon EC2 T3 instances are an advanced generation of burstable general-purpose instances that provide a consistent baseline level of CPU performance while allowing for burstable CPU usage whenever needed. They offer a balanced mix of compute, memory, and network resources, making them ideal for applications with moderate CPU usage that occasionally experience spikes.T3 instances accumulate CPU credits when operating below their baseline threshold. Each credit allows the instance to burst with the performance of a full CPU core for one minute when required. In Unlimited mode, T3 instances can burst as needed for as long as necessary.
Features
Equipped with up to 3.1 GHz Intel Xeon Scalable processors (Skylake 8175M or Cascade Lake 8259CL)
Provides burstable CPU performance managed by CPU Credits, with a consistent baseline performance
Includes Unlimited mode by default to handle peak periods and a Standard mode option for predictable monthly costs
Powered by the AWS Nitro System, which combines dedicated hardware with a lightweight hypervisor
Achieves up to a 30% price performance improvement over T2 instances due to the high-frequency Intel Xeon Scalable processors and the AWS Nitro System
