ARTICLES AND TUTORIALS
This is an amazing achievement for AWS from my perspective. Apple is a not a typical company, and they have deep expertise with Arm based architectures, so seeing this it's simply incredible. The next AWS:reInvent will be very interesting if one of those Apple Engineers give a talk about this.
The Institut Pasteur consequently turned to AWS to set up an appropriate infrastructure to meet the challenge of this massive processing. "Preparing the operations took almost a year, ultimately resulting in a calculation batch lasting just 30 hours," smiles Rayan Chikhi. But what a batch! During processing, AWS mobilised considerable resources, which reached 2.18 million vCPUs at peak for the
AWS Graviton instances. As a comparison, we reckon that it would have taken a desktop computer nearly 30 million hours, or 3,400 years, to carry out such a calculation.”

EVENTSGraviton Developer Day for Python, Go and JavaDate: Wednesday 25th September Time: 10:00 - 16:00 GMT+1 Location: 60 Holborn Viaduct, London, EC1A 2FD About the eventLanguages covered: Python, Go and Java Deployment options covered: EKS with Karpenter or EC2 Autoscaling Groups Join this workshop to learn all about AWS Graviton and how to develop and deploy applications for AWS Graviton processors to achieve the best EC2 price-performance and sustainability on AWS. During this workshop you will take an example x86 application (choosing from Python, Go or Java) and learn how to migrate and optimize especially for Graviton. Once you have converted the application you will have the opportunity to learn how to deploy the converted application on Graviton infrastructure through Amazon EKS or Autoscaling Groups. What you will learn:
Deploy the applications onto x86 and Graviton infrastructure (choose from EKS Karpenter or EC2 Autoscaling Groups) and compare Graviton performance improvements AWS's chip revolution: How Annapurna labs drives the cloudDate: Wednesday 24th September Time: 4:30PM - 7:15PM IDT Location: Azrieli Sarona Tower, 121st Menachem Begin Road, 28 Floor, Tel-Aviv Four years after its inception, Annapurna Labs was acquired by Amazon Web Services (AWS). Since then, we have accelerated innovation and developed a number of products that benefit cloud customers, including AWS Nitro technology, AWS Graviton processors, AWS ML Inferntia
& Trainium and more. Inventing and delivering the unimaginable on behalf of our customers is a steep and risky challenge - just like climbing the Annapurna mountains - but we embrace it every day.
Join us at the AWS offices in Tel Aviv for an exclusive opportunity to learn, network, and innovate with Annapurna Labs experts and fellow partners. This event will bring together industry leaders to discuss the latest advancements in silicon innovation and explore how these technologies are shaping the future of cloud computing. Whether you're a seasoned professional or new to the field, this event will provide valuable insights and connections. From the Cloud Silicon Ecosystem
