About

Elastic Fabric Adapter (EFA) is a network interface for Amazon EC2 instances that enables customers to run applications requiring high levels of inter-node communications at scale on AWS. Its custom-built operating system (OS) bypass hardware interface enhances the performance of inter-instance communications, which is critical to scaling these applications. With EFA, High-Performance Computing (HPC) applications using the Message Passing Interface (MPI) and Machine Learning (ML) applications using NVIDIA Collective Communications Library (NCCL) can scale to thousands of CPUs or GPUs. As a result, you get the application performance of on-premises HPC clusters with the on-demand elasticity and flexibility of the AWS cloud. EFA is available as an optional EC2 networking feature that you can enable on any supported EC2 instance at no additional cost. Plus, it works with the most commonly used interfaces, APIs, and libraries for inter-node communications.

About

Amazon EC2 UltraClusters enable you to scale to thousands of GPUs or purpose-built machine learning accelerators, such as AWS Trainium, providing on-demand access to supercomputing-class performance. They democratize supercomputing for ML, generative AI, and high-performance computing developers through a simple pay-as-you-go model without setup or maintenance costs. UltraClusters consist of thousands of accelerated EC2 instances co-located in a given AWS Availability Zone, interconnected using Elastic Fabric Adapter (EFA) networking in a petabit-scale nonblocking network. This architecture offers high-performance networking and access to Amazon FSx for Lustre, a fully managed shared storage built on a high-performance parallel file system, enabling rapid processing of massive datasets with sub-millisecond latencies. EC2 UltraClusters provide scale-out capabilities for distributed ML training and tightly coupled HPC workloads, reducing training times.
