AWS Machine Learning Infrastructure
High performance, cost-effective, and energy-efficient infrastructure for ML applications
From Fortune 500 companies to startups, organizations across various industries are increasingly adopting machine learning (ML) for a wide range of use cases, including natural language processing (NLP), computer vision, voice assistants, fraud detection, and recommendation engines. In addition, large language models (LLMs) that have hundreds of billions of parameters are unlocking new generative AI use cases, for example, image and text generation. With the growth of ML applications comes the increased usage, management, and cost of compute, storage, and networking resources. Identifying and choosing the right compute infrastructure is essential for reducing high power consumption, lowering excessive costs, and avoiding complexity during the training and deployment of ML models to production. To help you accelerate your ML innovation, AWS offers the ideal combination of high performance, cost-effective, and energy-efficient purpose-built ML tools and accelerators, optimized for ML applications.

Easy to use
Access purpose-built ML accelerators such as AWS Trainium and AWS Inferentia to train and deploy foundation models (FMs) and integrate them into your applications using AWS managed services such as Amazon SageMaker and Amazon Bedrock. SageMaker provides data scientists and ML developers with pretrained foundation models that can be fully customized for your specific use case and data, and deployed into production. Bedrock provides customers with a serverless experience for building generative AI applications using FMs through an API.

High performance
You can power your ML application with the highest performing ML infrastructure from AWS. Amazon EC2 P4d and Amazon EC2 Trn1 instances are ideal for high performance ML training. For inference, Amazon EC2 Inf2 instances, powered by second-generation Inferentia2 offer 4x higher throughput and up to 10x lower latency than previous generation Inferentia-based instances.

Cost effective
With a broad choice of infrastructure services, you can choose the right infrastructure for your budget. AWS Trainium-based Amazon EC2 Trn1 instances deliver 50% savings on training costs and AWS Inferentia2-based Amazon EC2 Inf2 instances deliver up to 40% better price performance than comparable Amazon EC2 instances. You can re-invest these cost-savings to accelerate innovation and grow your business.

Sustainable
AWS is committed to achieving Amazon's goal of net-zero carbon by 2040. Amazon SageMaker, a fully managed ML service, offers ML accelerators optimized for energy efficiency and reduced power consumption while training and deploying ML models in production. Amazon EC2 instances powered by ML accelerators, such as AWS Trainium and AWS Inferentia2, offer up to 50% better performance per watt than other comparable Amazon EC2 instances.

Scalable
AWS customers have access to virtually unlimited compute, network, and storage so they can scale. You can scale up or down as needed from one GPU or ML accelerator to thousands, and terabytes to petabytes of storage. Using the cloud, you don’t need to invest in all possible infrastructure. Instead, take advantage of elastic compute, storage, and networking.

Support for popular ML Frameworks
AWS computing instances support major ML frameworks such as TensorFlow and PyTorch. They also support model libraries and toolkits such as Hugging Face for a broad range of ML use cases. The AWS Deep Learning AMIs (AWS DLAMIs) and AWS Deep Learning Containers (AWS DLCs) come pre-installed with optimizations for ML frameworks and toolkits to accelerate deep learning in the cloud.
