Amazon ElastiCache supports M7g and R7g Graviton3-based nodes in additional AWS Regions

Amazon ElastiCache now supports Graviton3-based M7g and R7g node families in the following AWS Regions: Canada (Calgary), Middle East & Africa (Bahrain, Cape Town, Dubai, Tel Aviv), Europe (Milan, Paris (introducing R7g), and Zurich), Asia Pacific (Hong Kong, Jakarta, Kuala Lumpur, Melbourne, and Osaka).

ElastiCache Graviton3 nodes deliver improved price-performance compared to Graviton2. As an example, when running ElastiCache for Redis OSS on an R7g.4xlarge node, you can achieve up to 28% increased throughput (read and write operations per second) and up to 21% improved P99 latency, compared to running on R6g.4xlarge. In addition, these nodes deliver up to 25% higher networking bandwidth.
