Amazon Web Services chief evangelist Jeff Barr announced in a recent blog post that the company was adding Xilinx FPGAs to its Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (Amazon EC2). The addition of this new hardware will allow users to create accelerated FPGA applications, but AWS will also let users sell these applications on the AWS Marketplace. "We are giving you the ability to design your own logic, simulate and verify it using cloud-based tools, and then get it to market in a matter of days," said Barr.The post AWS Adds FPGAs to its Public Cloud appeared first on insideHPC.

In this special guest feature, Kim McMahon shares her perspectives on SC16. "“Faster†is the game in HPC. You can achieve speed with GPUs, FPGAs, or faster CPUs. GPUs have been around a while – you go to NVIDIA and that’s where your GPUs are. FPGAs have also been around a while, but recent market actions are now making them a more viable option: Intel’s acquisition of Altera, the maturation of the OpenCL toolchain, Microsoft’s adoption and use of Bing in their data center, AWS adding FPGAs to their cloud offerings."The post Post SC16: Top 10 Things in Retrospect appeared first on insideHPC.
