Graviton Readiness Insights

What is an AWS Graviton Instance?

AWS Graviton instances are powered by custom ARM-based processors designed by AWS to deliver the best price-performance for cloud workloads in Amazon EC2. These processors are optimized for cloud-native applications and typically offer up to 40% better price-performance compared to equivalent x86-based instances.

It helps you evaluate whether your Linux-based workloads are ready to be migrated to AWS Graviton–based EC2 instances, which offer improved performance, energy efficiency, and cost savings. These insights are available directly within the Summary tab, and also with a download option on the console UI to export the Graviton Application Compatibility Score as per-instance summary within the Summary tab under Graviton Application Compatibility Score column.

This identifies the list of applications that may not be supported on Graviton discovered on Linux instances with OSs that are supported on Graviton. It does not verify whether installed applications are compatible with the Arm64/Graviton architecture. The presence of applications is listed for customer review only.

  1. Log in to the console https://console.cloudamize.com/#/

  2. Navigate to the Analyze page of your completed assessment.

  3. Click the View Details button beside your AWS results.

  4. Click the Summary tab to see the following under Graviton Application Compatibility Score column

    The “Is OS Graviton Eligible” Column indicates a status indicator showing if the server's Operating System (OS) version supports ARM architecture. The “Green”(Tick) indicates that the servers with compatible OS are eligible for AWS Graviton processors where as it shows “Red”(Cross) for the servers with incompatible OS are not eligible for AWS Graviton Processors as shown in the below screenshot. The N/A status indicates the graviton eligibility is not applicable typically for all the servers with Windows OS.

The “Graviton Application Compatibility score” columns indiactes a color-coded percentage representing the ratio of Graviton-compatible software packages found on that server. (e.g., 85% means 85% of detected packages have known ARM support). as shown in the below screenshot.

The Graviton Supported Count indicates The total number of detected software packages on the server that are confirmed to be natively compatible with Graviton processors where as the Graviton Unsupported Count indicates The total number of detected software packages that lack native ARM support and may require replatforming, refactoring, or updating.

Graviton Supported Application Count(Supported | Unsupported)

The download button just beside the Graviton Supported Application count as shown below allows to export the Graviton Application Compatibility Report in xlsx format.

Column Name

Description

Group Name

This field indicates the infrastructure type. It's "Physical Infrastructure" if data is collected via an Agent or Agentless Data Collector (ADC) from individual machines, and "Virtual" if data is collected from a vCenter Server or hypervisor.

Asset Name

User-defined name of the asset group. If no name is assigned, machines are labeled “Default”. The Asset group is typically used to designate “Production”, “Development”, “Test”, “Data Center Name”, etc.

Server Name

Your given machine name.

Graviton Supported

TRUE if Gravition is supported, FALSE if not

Application Display Name

List of applications running on the current machine and supported by Graviton

Versions

Application Version

Vendor Display Name

The names of the application vendors

OS

Installed Operating System. Cloudamize can also indicate the following: Microsoft SQL Server Standard or Enterprise edition, Ubuntu.

Summary Tab

Column Name

Description

Group Name

The logical or functional grouping assigned to the asset (e.g., Application Name, Business Unit, or Environment like "Production").

Asset Name

A user-defined unique identifier or tag for the specific asset group within Cloudamize.

Server Name

The specific hostname or machine identifier for the server being analyzed.

Eligible For Graviton

A status indicator showing if the server's Operating System (OS) version supports ARM architecture. Typically shows a Green Checkmark for compatible OS versions or a Red Cross/Dash if the OS is too old or incompatible.

Application Readiness Score

A color-coded percentage representing the ratio of Graviton-compatible software packages found on that server. (e.g., 85% means 85% of detected packages have known ARM support).

Graviton Supported Count

The total number of detected software packages on the server that are confirmed to be natively compatible with Graviton processors.

Graviton Unsupported Count

The total number of detected software packages that lack native ARM support and may require replatforming, refactoring, or updating.
