Compute Instance

Configuring Allowed Instance Types of AWS Batch for MMBatch

A checkpoint created on a CPU with one architecture must be restored on a CPU with a compatible architecture. For example, a checkpoint created on an Intel Xeon Platinum 8000 series processor cannot be restored on a Graviton processor. Hence, it is essential to have the allowed instance types to be CPU architecture compatible.

Below is the list of CPU architecture compatible instance types in groups where the instance types in the same group can be used and specified in the allowed instance types of AWS Batch Compute Environment.

1. Group 1: r5.large - r5.24xlarge

2. Group 2: r7i.large - r7i.48xlarge

3. Group 3: m5.large - m5.24xlarge

4. Group 4: m6i.large - m6i.32xlarge

5. Group 5: m7i.large - m7i.48xlarge

6. Group 6: c7i.large - c7i.48xlarge
