Today, Amazon AppStream 2.0 announces support for Graphics G6 instances with fractionalized GPU sizes, which are built on the https://aws.amazon.com/ec2/instance-types/g6/, designed to cater to graphics applications that need smaller GPU fractions. Graphics G6 instances with fractionalized GPU sizes (G6f and Gr6f) allow users to utilize only the GPU resources they need, rather than provisioning full GPU instances. This approach helps enable better resource optimization through shared GPU capacity, offering flexibility to choose smaller GPU fractions (such as 1/2, 1/4, or 1/8) that align with specific workload requirements. Organizations can benefit from reduced costs by avoiding over-provisioning while maintaining access to GPU capabilities for applications that don't require full GPU power. These new instance types are available in 10 AWS Regions, including US East (N. Virginia, Ohio), US West (Oregon), Canada (Central), Europe (Frankfurt, London), Asia Pacific (Tokyo, Mumbai, Sydney), and South America (Sao Paulo). AppStream 2.0 offers pay-as-you-go pricing, see https://aws.amazon.com/appstream2/pricing/ for more information.
