  • New Amazon EC2 G7 instances offer enhanced GPU acceleration

    Amazon EC2 G7 instances are now generally available, featuring NVIDIA RTX PRO 4500 Blackwell Server Edition GPUs and custom Intel Xeon Scalable processors. These instances deliver up to 4.6x AI inference performance and up to 2.1x graphics performance improvements over G6 instances.

  • G7 instances support various GPU-accelerated workloads

    These instances are well-suited for AI inference, graphics rendering, video transcoding, spatial computing, virtual desktop infrastructure (VDI), and GPU-accelerated data analytics, including on Amazon EMR and Amazon EKS.

  • Enhanced multi-GPU and multi-node communication features

    G7 instances support NVIDIA GPUDirect P2P for multi-GPU communication and NVIDIA GPUDirect RDMA with EFA for low-latency GPU-to-GPU and multi-node communication, including with Amazon FSx for Lustre.
