We’re thrilled to announce the general availability of AWS Graviton Support on CelerData Cloud BYOC. This delivers unmatched performance and cost savings for businesses looking to future proof their data architecture. With the addition of AWS Graviton 3, CelerData Cloud BYOC users can expect over 50% price-performance improvements.
AWS Graviton is a family of processors developed by Amazon Web Services, designed specifically for cloud workloads. Built on ARM architecture, It is known for its superior energy efficiency and enhanced performance compared to traditional x86 processors, particularly for high-performance computing and data-intensive tasks. Graviton processors are optimized for a range of applications, including high-performance computing, machine learning, and data processing.
CelerData Cloud BYOC, built on StarRocks, now brings a new layer of efficiency with AWS Graviton. This means that your workloads can run faster, consume less power, and dramatically reduce operational costs, making it an essential upgrade for any business looking to maximize its ROI.
With a 25% boost in single-thread performance, support for DDR5 memory for higher bandwidth, and advanced security features compared to the previous generation Graviton instances, Graviton 3 provides the perfect balance of speed, cost-efficiency, and scalability. And the best part? These improvements seamlessly integrate with your existing CelerData Cloud infrastructure, ensuring that you get the most out of your analytics at a fraction of the cost.
Curious about what these enhancements bring to the table? Let’s dive into CelerData Cloud BYOC's latest benchmarking results on the TPC-H benchmark test.
The benchmark is run on the following EC2s, with all instances equipped with EBS GP3 volumes:
