AWS RoboMaker now supports creating simulation jobs in batch with a single API call

Posted on: Feb 7, 2020

AWS RoboMaker, a service that makes it easy to develop, simulate, and deploy robotics applications, now supports creating simulation jobs in batch with a single API call. The new support for batch simulations allows developers to easily create multiple simulation jobs for use cases like automated regression testing and reinforcement learning model training. The batch API also provides a queueing capability so that a developer can now submit more simulation jobs than is possible with the existing concurrent job execution limit. The batch API will queue up all the submitted jobs and execute them in batches based on the concurrent execution limit.

AWS RoboMaker provides a robotics development environment for application development, a robotics simulation service to accelerate application testing, and a robotics fleet management service for remote application deployment, update, and management. AWS RoboMaker also extends the most widely used open-source robotics software framework, Robot Operating System (ROS1 and ROS2), with connectivity to cloud services. This includes AWS machine learning services, monitoring services, and analytics services that enable a robot to stream data, navigate, communicate, comprehend, and learn. To get started, please explore the RoboMaker webpage or run a sample simulation job in the RoboMaker console

AWS RoboMaker is available in US East (N. Virginia), US East (Ohio), US West (Oregon), EU (Ireland), EU (Frankfurt), Asia Pacific (Tokyo), and Asia Pacific (Singapore) regions.
