Lowest and highest price by billing term

Each row compares one billing term in one currency across the regions that list it. Billing terms and currencies are never mixed or converted, and a stale price is compared only when no fresh one exists.

t3a.large: cheapest and most expensive region per billing term, native hourly price.

Every published t3a.large price

One table per billing term, cheapest first (on-demand open, other terms folded). Monthly figures follow the provider's billing: a vendor monthly cap is not the hourly price multiplied by 730.

Specification notes
  • AWS public pricing data identifies this as General purpose; it reports storage as "EBS only" and network as "Up to 5 Gigabit".
  • CPU architecture x86-64: AWS EC2 instance-type documentation lists t3a with AMD (x86_64) processors (https://docs.aws.amazon.com/ec2/latest/instancetypes/gp.html), and the AWS us-east-1 price list version 20261007165408 names the physical processor "AMD EPYC 7571" (reviewed 2026-10-08).
  • Physical CPU cores: 1 (2 vCPUs at 2 threads per core), per the EC2 instance-type docs (https://docs.aws.amazon.com/ec2/latest/instancetypes/gp.html, reviewed 2026-10-08).
  • Local storage: none; the EC2 instance-type docs list this size as "Instance store not supported" (EBS-only; EBS volumes are priced separately; reviewed 2026-10-08).
  • Network bandwidth: 0.512 Gbps baseline, bursting to 5 Gbps, per the EC2 instance-type docs (https://docs.aws.amazon.com/ec2/latest/instancetypes/gp.html, reviewed 2026-10-08); this record uses the baseline.
  • The metered pricing feeds this collector reads do not publish GPU evidence, and the bulk price list was used only for the processor name; that field remains unknown.
  • CPU allocation burstable: AWS's burstable performance instance docs (https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSEC2/latest/UserGuide/burstable-credits-baseline-concepts.html, reviewed 2026-10-23) give t3a.large a baseline of 30% utilization per vCPU. They say these instances launch in unlimited mode by default, where average use above the baseline over 24 hours is billed at an extra flat rate per vCPU-hour.
