AWS extended availability of high-performance P5.48xl EC2 instances to regions including US West (San Francisco), Asia Pacific (Tokyo, Mumbai, Sydney, Jakarta), and Europe (London, Stockholm). These instances aim to accelerate deep learning model training and inference by leveraging NVIDIA H100 GPUs, promising up to 4x speed gains over prior generation GPUs and 40% better cost efficiency.
Targeted at large language models and diffusion models that underpin generative AI applications such as code generation and multimedia processing, these instances integrate with SageMaker Studio notebooks, providing enhanced infrastructure options in additional geographies for customers requiring scalable AI compute resources.
