After the article in Nature about the open-source of AlphaFold v2.0 on GitHub by DeepMind, many in the scientific and research community have wanted to try out DeepMind’s AlphaFold implementation firsthand. With compute resources through Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (Amazon EC2) with Nvidia GPU, you can quickly get AlphaFold running and try it out yourself. […]

AWS customers like Snap, Alexa, and Autodesk have been using AWS Inferentia to achieve the highest performance and lowest cost on a wide variety of machine learning (ML) deployments. Natural language processing (NLP) models are growing in popularity for real-time and offline batched use cases. Our customers deploy these models in many applications like support […]

AWS continues to innovate on behalf of our customers. We’re working with NVIDIA to bring an Arm processor-based, NVIDIA GPU accelerated Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (Amazon EC2) instance to the cloud in the second half of 2021. This instance will feature the Arm-based AWS Graviton2 processor, which was built from the ground up by AWS […]

Starting Monday, October 5, 2020, the NVIDIA GPU Technology Conference (GTC) is offering online sessions for you to learn AWS best practices to accomplish your machine learning (ML), virtual workstations, high performance computing (HPC), and internet of things (IoT) goals faster and more easily. Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (Amazon EC2) instances powered by NVIDIA GPUs […]

AWS has expanded the availability of Amazon EC2 Inf1 instances to four new AWS Regions, bringing the total number of supported Regions to 11: US East (N. Virginia, Ohio), US West (Oregon), Asia Pacific (Mumbai, Singapore, Sydney, Tokyo), Europe (Frankfurt, Ireland, Paris), and South America (São Paulo). Amazon EC2 Inf1 instances are powered by AWS […]

Distributed training of large deep learning models has become an indispensable way of model training for computer vision (CV) and natural language processing (NLP) applications. Open source frameworks such as Horovod provide distributed training support to Apache MXNet, PyTorch, and TensorFlow. Converting your non-distributed Apache MXNet training script to use distributed training with Horovod only […]

Following strong customer demand, AWS has expanded the availability of Amazon EC2 Inf1 instances to five new Regions: US East (Ohio), Asia Pacific (Sydney, Tokyo), and Europe (Frankfurt, Ireland). Inf1 instances are powered by AWS Inferentia chips, which Amazon custom-designed to provide you with the lowest cost per inference in the cloud and lower barriers […]

In October 2019, AWS announced that it was working with Facebook, Microsoft, and the Partnership on AI on the first Deepfake Detection Challenge. Deepfake algorithms are the same as the underlying technology that has given us realistic animation effects in movies and video games. Unfortunately, those same algorithms have been used by bad actors to […]

Tens of thousands of customers rely on AWS for building machine learning (ML) applications. Customers like Airbnb and Pinterest use AWS to optimize their search recommendations, Lyft and Toyota Research Institute to develop their autonomous vehicle programs, and Capital One and Intuit to build and deploy AI-powered customer assistants. AWS offers the broadest and deepest […]
