Overview

Work securely, anywhere to speed time to results, lower costs, and innovate with reliable, performant virtual desktops for every workload, scalable high performance compute for complex engineering workloads, and take advantage of generative AI services using your choice of foundation models to create entirely new product designs.

AWS offers extensive experience in engineering and design, the most comprehensive set of cloud services and AWS Solutions (including over 750 compute instances, and 15 AWS Solutions), the largest community of customers and partners, and the highest standards for privacy and data security to help industry leaders innovate faster and protect critical intellectual property.

Benefits

Why Engineering & Design on AWS

Move from idea to market faster with virtually unlimited compute capacity, a high-performance file system, and high-throughput networking.
Lower costs by running HPC workloads in the cloud, using virtual workstations, scaling up or down instantly, and only paying for the resources you need.
Allow engineers to efficiently and securely collaborate on the same files, on any device, across the world.
Generate synthetic data for simulations to reduce testing time, and rapidly explore a large number of variables create innovative design options with generative AI.

Amazon WorkSpaces helps Ferrari reduce virtual desktop deployment time by 90%

The image highlights the use of autonomous drones for delivery in an engineering and industrial environment. Amazon Prime Air needed to design and build a drone for unmanned deliveries. Siemen's Simcenter STAR-CCM+ solution on AWS helped Prime Air streamline its engineering workflows, which resulted in additional efficiency gains. Read the case study »

Commonwealth Fusion Systems (CFS) on a path to deliver commercial fusion energy

Nate O'Farrell, Head of IT Infrastructure at Commonwealth Fusion Systems, speaks in an interview with an office environment background. With frequent changes in requirements, scope, and priorities, CFS required highly flexible advanced solutions as well as powerful end user workstations. They chose AWS engineering and design cloud solutions, like Scale-out computing, to build scalable, usable compute capabilities. Hear how they took their estimated computation from 56 to 3 days.
