AWS Graviton processors, ARM-based chips designed by Amazon, offer significant advantages in terms of cost-efficiency, performance, and energy use, making them a compelling choice for various cloud services like Amazon EC2, Amazon ElastiCache, and Amazon RDS. Introduced initially in 2018 with Graviton and followed by the more advanced Graviton2 and Graviton3, these processors address the needs of users who find x86-64 architecture excessive for their requirements. Graviton processors are noted for their high performance per dollar and watt, along with extensive software support and built-in security features, such as always-on memory encryption and dedicated caches for every vCPU. They are especially suitable for diverse instance types, including general-purpose, compute-optimized, memory-optimized, storage-optimized, and accelerated computing applications. Deploying applications on AWS Graviton requires a basic understanding of cloud principles and specific configurations for ARM architecture, as demonstrated in a tutorial for running a Golang "hello world" application. The processors' energy-efficient design aligns with efforts to reduce carbon footprints, while build automation tools like Earthly can further streamline development processes across different architectures.
