HAQM Elastic Container Service for Kubernetes (EKS) now supports running containers on GPU-enabled EC2 instances.
HAQM EC2 P3 and P2 instances, featuring NVIDIA GPUs, power some of the most computationally advanced workloads today, including machine learning (ML), high performance computing (HPC), financial analytics, and video transcoding. Previously, using Kubernetes to run containerized workloads on P2 and P3 EC2 instances required customizing the EKS-optimized HAQM Machine Image (AMI) to include the appropriate GPU drivers.
Now, a new HAQM EKS-optimized AMI includes configured NVIDIA drivers for GPU-enabled P2 and P3 EC2 instances. This makes it easy to run advanced workloads that require GPU support using HAQM EKS.
