Category: AWS Parallel Computing Service

We want to empower every scientist and engineer to solve hard problems by giving them access to the compute and analytical tools they need, when they need them. Cloud HPC can be a real human progress catalyst. If you run large scale simulations, tune complex models, or support researchers who consistently need more compute, the […]

AWS re:Invent 2025 returns to Las Vegas, Nevada on December 1, uniting AWS builders, customers, partners, and IT professionals from across the globe. This year’s event offers you exclusive access to compelling customer stories and insights from AWS leadership as they tackle today’s most critical challenges in high-performance computing, from accelerating scientific discovery to optimizing […]

It’s been a year since we announced AWS Parallel Computing Service (PCS). In a way this is the third generation of Slurm-based HPC orchestrators that we’ve brought to you. We’ve learned much from helping customers deploy serious production workloads on AWS ParallelCluster, which itself grew from the foundations layed by CfnCluster – the open-source project […]

This post was contributed by by Kareem Abdol-Hamid, Kyle Bush Today we’re happy to announce that support for Amazon EC2 Capacity Blocks for Machine Learning are now supported in AWS Parallel Computing Service (AWS PCS). This allows you to reserve and schedule GPU-accelerated Amazon EC2 instances for future use. That includes the NVIDIA Hopper GPU […]

AWS Parallel Computing Service (AWS PCS) now supports accounting, a Slurm feature that enables you to monitor resource utilization, enforce resource limits, and manage access-control to specific capacity across users and projects in a cluster. AWS PCS manages the accounting database for the cluster, so that you don’t have to setup and manage a separate accounting database. In this post, we’ll show you how this works, and point you to some actual use cases you can try yourself.

AWS Parallel Computing Service now supports AWS CloudFormation, enabling you to deploy and scale HPC workloads as code. Check out our open-source HPC Recipes Library for quick cluster deployments.
