Best HPC Software for Amazon EKS

Amazon EC2 instances P4d deliver high performance in cloud computing for machine learning applications and high-performance computing. They offer 400 Gbps networking and are powered by NVIDIA Tensor Core GPUs. P4d instances offer up to 60% less cost for training ML models. They also provide 2.5x better performance compared to the previous generation P3 and P3dn instance. P4d instances are deployed in Amazon EC2 UltraClusters which combine high-performance computing with networking and storage. Users can scale from a few NVIDIA GPUs to thousands, depending on their project requirements. Researchers, data scientists and developers can use P4d instances to build ML models to be used in a variety of applications, including natural language processing, object classification and detection, recommendation engines, and HPC applications.

Amazon S3 Express One Zone, a high-performance storage class with a single Availability Zone, is designed to deliver consistent data access in milliseconds for your most frequently used data and applications that are latency sensitive. It offers data access rates up to 10x faster and request costs up to 50 percent lower than S3 Standard. S3 Express One Zone allows you to select a specific AWS availability zone within an AWS Region for your data storage. This allows you to co-locate both your compute and storage resources in the same AWS Region, further optimizing performance and lowering compute costs. The data is stored in an S3 directory bucket that supports hundreds of thousands requests per second. S3 Express One Zone can be used with services like Amazon SageMaker, Amazon Athena and Amazon EMR to accelerate machine learning and analytics workloads.

Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud's (Amazon EC2) instances P5 powered by NVIDIA Tensor core GPUs and P5e or P5en instances powered NVIDIA Tensor core GPUs provide the best performance in Amazon EC2 when it comes to deep learning and high-performance applications. They can help you accelerate the time to solution up to four times compared to older GPU-based EC2 instance generation, and reduce costs to train ML models up to forty percent. These instances allow you to iterate faster on your solutions and get them to market quicker. You can use P5,P5e,and P5en instances to train and deploy increasingly complex large language and diffusion models that power the most demanding generative artificial intelligent applications. These applications include speech recognition, video and image creation, code generation and question answering. These instances can be used to deploy HPC applications for pharmaceutical discovery.

Amazon EC2 UltraClusters allow you to scale up to thousands of GPUs and machine learning accelerators such as AWS trainium, providing access to supercomputing performance on demand. They enable supercomputing to be accessible for ML, generative AI and high-performance computing through a simple, pay-as you-go model, without any setup or maintenance fees. UltraClusters are made up of thousands of accelerated EC2 instance co-located within a specific AWS Availability Zone and interconnected with Elastic Fabric Adapter networking to create a petabit scale non-blocking network. This architecture provides high-performance networking, and access to Amazon FSx, a fully-managed shared storage built on a parallel high-performance file system. It allows rapid processing of large datasets at sub-millisecond latency. EC2 UltraClusters offer scale-out capabilities to reduce training times for distributed ML workloads and tightly coupled HPC workloads.
