Our guide to AWS Compute at re:Invent 2022

This blog post is written by Shruti Koparkar, Senior Product Marketing Manager, Amazon EC2.

AWS re:Invent is the most transformative event in cloud computing and it is starting on November 28, 2022. AWS Compute team has many exciting sessions planned for you covering everything from foundational content, to technology deep dives, customer stories, and even hands on workshops. To help you build out your calendar for this year’s re:Invent, let’s look at some highlights from the AWS Compute track in this blog. Please visit the session catalog for a full list of AWS Compute sessions.

Learn what powers AWS Compute

AWS offers the broadest and deepest functionality for compute. Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (Amazon EC2) offers granular control for managing your infrastructure with the choice of processors, storage, and networking.

The AWS Nitro System is the underlying platform for our all our modern EC2 instances. It enables AWS to innovate faster, further reduce cost for our customers, and deliver added benefits like increased security and new instance types.

Discover the benefits of AWS Silicon

AWS has invested years designing custom silicon optimized for the cloud. This investment helps us deliver high performance at lower costs for a wide range of applications and workloads using AWS services.

  • Explore the AWS journey into silicon innovation with our “CMP201: Silicon Innovation at AWS” session. We will cover some of the thought processes, learnings, and results from our experience building silicon for AWS Graviton, AWS Nitro System, and AWS Inferentia.
  • To learn about customer-proven strategies to help you make the move to AWS Graviton quickly and confidently while minimizing uncertainty and risk, attend “CMP410: Framework for adopting AWS Graviton-based instances”.

 Explore different use cases

Amazon EC2 provides secure and resizable compute capacity for several different use-cases including general purpose computing for cloud native and enterprise applications, and accelerated computing for machine learning and high performance computing (HPC) applications.

High performance computing

  • HPC on AWS can help you design your products faster with simulations, predict the weather, detect seismic activity with greater precision, and more. To learn how to solve world’s toughest problems with extreme-scale compute come join us for “CMP205: HPC on AWS: Solve complex problems with pay-as-you-go infrastructure”.
  • Single on-premises general-purpose supercomputers can fall short when solving increasingly complex problems. Attend “CMP222: Redefining supercomputing on AWS” to learn how AWS is reimagining supercomputing to provide scientists and engineers with more access to world-class facilities and technology.
  • AWS offers many solutions to design, simulate, and verify the advanced semiconductor devices that are the foundation of modern technology. Attend “CMP320: Accelerating semiconductor design, simulation, and verification” to hear from ARM and Marvel about how they are using AWS to accelerate EDA workloads.

Machine Learning

Cost Optimization

Hear from our customers

We have several sessions this year where AWS customers are taking the stage to share their stories and details of exciting innovations made possible by AWS.

Get started with hands-on sessions

Nothing like a hands-on session where you can learn by doing and get started easily with AWS compute. Our speakers and workshop assistants will help you every step of the way. Just bring your laptop to get started!

You’ll get to meet the global cloud community at AWS re:Invent and get an opportunity to learn, get inspired, and rethink what’s possible. So build your schedule in the re:Invent portal and get ready to hit the ground running. We invite you to stop by the AWS Compute booth and chat with our experts. We look forward to seeing you in Las Vegas!
