AWS Deadline Cloud now supports GPU accelerated EC2 Instance Types

Posted on: Nov 14, 2024

Today, AWS announces support for NVIDIA GPU accelerated instances in service-managed fleets (SMF) in AWS Deadline Cloud. AWS Deadline Cloud is a fully managed service that simplifies render management for teams creating computer-generated 2D/3D graphics and visual effects for films, TV shows, commercials, games, and industrial design.

Now you can use Deadline Cloud SMF to create auto-scaling fleets of GPU accelerated instances without having to set up, configure, or manage the worker infrastructure yourself. Deadline Cloud SMF can be set up in minutes to deploy NVIDIA GPU accelerated EC2 Instance Types (G4dn, G5, G6, Gr6, G6e) with NVIDIA GRID drivers and Windows Server 2022 or Linux (AL2023) operating systems. This expands the digital content creation software you can use within a fully managed render farm.

NVIDIA GPU accelerated instances, are supported in service-managed fleets in all AWS Regions where Deadline Cloud is available.
