HFE consideration:

  • P3 and G3 instances are GPU-enabled and thus are not used by HFE. To reduce costs, other mappings are available to G3 and P3.
Note

The SBC SWe is also supported in AWS GovCloud. For more information, please contact Ribbon Sales/PLM.

Note

The SBC SWe in the AWS network supports the maximum available IP addresses for the supported instance types. The number of IP addresses per network interface per instance type is located at https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSEC2/latest/UserGuide/using-eni.html#AvailableIpPerENI.

Note
Changing instance type or size is not supported on Hypervisor reboot. Any change to instance type or size requires re-installation and updated licensing for the instance.
