AMD (NASDAQ: AMD) announced Amazon Web Services (AWS) has expanded its 4th Gen AMD EPYC™ processor-based offerings with the general availability of Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2) M7a and Amazon EC2 Hpc7a instances, which offer next-generation performance and efficiency for applications that benefit from high performance, high throughput and tightly coupled HPC workloads, respectively.
“For customers with increasingly complex and compute-intensive workloads, 4th Gen EPYC processor-powered Amazon EC2 instances deliver a differentiated offering for customers,” said David Brown, vice president of Amazon EC2 at AWS. “Combined with the power of the AWS Nitro System, both M7a and Hpc7a instances allow for fast and low-latency internode communications, advancing what our customers can achieve across our growing family of Amazon EC2 instances.”
“4th Gen EPYC processors have unmatched performance leadership; and our collaboration with AWS is delivering the full 4th Gen EPYC performance per core in new M7a and Hpc7a instances,” said Dan McNamara, senior vice president and general manager, Server Business Unit, AMD. “As a result, our customers can do more with less across a wide range of workloads, while simultaneously optimizing their businesses.”
AMD stock let go of $1.24, or 1.2%, to begin Friday trading at $103.20.
