About AWS Trainium
AWS Trainium is the second-generation Machine Learning (ML) accelerator that AWS purpose built for deep learning training of 100B+ parameter models. Each Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2) Trn1 instance deploys up to 16 AWS Trainium accelerators to deliver a high-performance, low-cost solution for deep learning (DL) training in the cloud. Although the use of deep learning is accelerating, many development teams are limited by fixed budgets, which puts a cap on the scope and frequency of training needed to improve their models and applications. Trainium-based EC2 Trn1 instances solve this challenge by delivering faster time to train while offering up to 50% cost-to-train savings over comparable Amazon EC2 instances.
