Today, AWS announces the general availability of Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (Amazon EC2) F2 instances, featuring up to 8 FPGAs. Amazon EC2 F2 instances, the second-generation FPGA-powered instances, are purpose built to develop and deploy reconfigurable hardware in the cloud.
You can use F2 instances to power the next generation of FPGA-accelerated solutions in genomics, multimedia processing, big data, network security/acceleration, and cloud-based video broadcasting.
F2 instances are the first FPGA-based instances to feature 16GB of high-bandwidth memory. F2 instances provide up to 8 FPGAs paired with a 3rd generation AMD EPYC (Milan) processor with 3x processor cores (192 vCPU), 2x system memory (2 TiB), 2x NVMe SSD (7.6 TiB), and 4x networking bandwidth (100 Gbps) compared to F1 instances.
F2 instances are now available in the US East (N.Virginia) and Europe (London) AWS Regions in f2.12xl, and f2.48xl sizes.
