Missing EC2 g6e instances in Ireland (eu-west-1)

-1

G6e instances (NVIDIA L40S) - or anything above that tier, since G5 doesn't cut it for our needs - currently aren't available in eu-west-1; the nearest regions offering them are eu-central-1 and eu-north-1.

Is there any public roadmap info or timeline for G6e (or similar) landing in eu-west-1? Even a rough ETA - this quarter, next year, no plans - would help with planning.

Has anyone gotten a concrete answer from AWS Support or their TAM on this?

Thanks!

Unfortunately, AWS does not publicly share roadmaps or timelines for when specific instance types will become available in particular regions. This includes G6e instances in eu-west-1 (Ireland). While I can confirm that G6e instances are indeed available in eu-central-1 (Frankfurt) and eu-north-1 (Stockholm) as you mentioned, there is no publicly available information about when or if they will launch in Ireland.

For the most accurate and up-to-date information about instance availability in specific regions, I recommend reaching out through the AWS Support Center at https://console.aws.amazon.com/support/. If you have an AWS Support plan that includes access to technical account management, that would be your best avenue for discussing your specific requirements and potentially getting insights into regional availability that might help with your planning.

In the meantime, you might consider whether deploying in eu-central-1 or eu-north-1 could work for your use case, keeping in mind factors like latency requirements, data residency considerations, and any regulatory constraints specific to your workload.
