AWS Neuron
It supports high-performance training on AWS Trainium-based Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (Amazon EC2) Trn1 instances. For model deployment, it supports high-performance and low-latency inference on AWS Inferentia-based Amazon EC2 Inf1 instances and AWS Inferentia2-based Amazon EC2 Inf2 instances. With Neuron, you can use popular frameworks, such as TensorFlow and PyTorch, and optimally train and deploy machine learning (ML) models on Amazon EC2 Trn1, Inf1, and Inf2 instances with minimal code changes and without tie-in to vendor-specific solutions. AWS Neuron SDK, which supports Inferentia and Trainium accelerators, is natively integrated with PyTorch and TensorFlow. This integration ensures that you can continue using your existing workflows in these popular frameworks and get started with only a few lines of code changes. For distributed model training, the Neuron SDK supports libraries, such as Megatron-LM and PyTorch Fully Sharded Data Parallel (FSDP).

AWS EC2 Trn3 Instances
Amazon EC2 Trn3 UltraServers are AWS’s newest accelerated computing instances, powered by the in-house Trainium3 AI chips and engineered specifically for high-performance deep-learning training and inference workloads. These UltraServers are offered in two configurations, a “Gen1” with 64 Trainium3 chips and a “Gen2” with up to 144 Trainium3 chips per UltraServer. The Gen2 configuration delivers up to 362 petaFLOPS of dense MXFP8 compute, 20 TB of HBM memory, and a staggering 706 TB/s of aggregate memory bandwidth, making it one of the highest-throughput AI compute platforms available. Interconnects between chips are handled by a new “NeuronSwitch-v1” fabric to support all-to-all communication patterns, which are especially important for large models, mixture-of-experts architectures, or large-scale distributed training.

Amazon EC2 Trn1 Instances
Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2) Trn1 instances, powered by AWS Trainium chips, are purpose-built for high-performance deep learning training of generative AI models, including large language models and latent diffusion models. Trn1 instances offer up to 50% cost-to-train savings over other comparable Amazon EC2 instances. You can use Trn1 instances to train 100B+ parameter DL and generative AI models across a broad set of applications, such as text summarization, code generation, question answering, image and video generation, recommendation, and fraud detection. The AWS Neuron SDK helps developers train models on AWS Trainium (and deploy models on the AWS Inferentia chips). It integrates natively with frameworks such as PyTorch and TensorFlow so that you can continue using your existing code and workflows to train models on Trn1 instances.
