Introducing HPC Optimized Amazon EC2 G4 Instances on Nebula Cloud

High Performance Computing GPU Computing Digital Transformation Enterprise SaaS

Nebula Cloud is pleased to announce the availability of industry’s most cost-effective GPU instances for machine learning inference and graphics-intensive applications for India and APAC regions.

Amazon EC2 G4 instances are the industry’s most cost-effective and versatile GPU instances for deploying machine learning models such as image classification, object detection, and speech recognition, and for graphics-intensive applications such as remote graphics workstations, game streaming, and graphics rendering. G4 instances are available with NVIDIA GPUs (G4dn) on Nebula Cloud.

G4dn instances feature NVIDIA T4 GPUs and custom Intel Cascade Lake CPUs, and are optimized for machine learning inference and small-scale training. These instances also bring high performance to graphics-intensive applications including remote workstations, game streaming, and graphics rendering. These instances are also ideal for customers who prefer to use NVIDIA software such as RTX Virtual Workstation and libraries such as CUDA, CuDNN, and NVENC.

Amazon EC2 G4dn Instances

G4dn instances, powered by NVIDIA T4 GPUs, are the lowest cost GPU-based instances in the cloud for machine learning inference and small-scale training. They also provide high performance and are a cost-effective solution for graphics applications that are optimized for NVIDIA GPUs using NVIDIA libraries such as CUDA, CuDNN, and NVENC. They provide up to 8 NVIDIA T4 GPUs, 96 vCPUs, 100 Gbps networking, and 1.8 TB local NVMe-based SSD storage and are also available as bare metal instances.

          

Benefits

INCREASE PERFORMANCE AND REDUCE MACHINE LEARNING INFERENCE COSTS

G4dn instances are equipped with NVIDIA T4 GPUs which deliver up to 40X better low-latency throughput than CPUs, so more requests can be served in real time. Also, G4dn instances are optimized to be cost-effective for machine learning inference, which can represent up to 90% of overall operational costs for machine learning initiatives.

COST-EFFECTIVE SMALL-SCALE TRAINING

G4dn instances are also useful for small-scale/entry-level machine learning training jobs for those businesses or institutions that are less sensitive to time-to-train. G4dn instances deliver up to 65 TFLOPs of FP16 performance and are a compelling solution for small-scale training jobs.

HIGH PERFORMANCE FOR GRAPHICS INTENSIVE APPLICATIONS

G4dn instances have up to 1.8X better graphics performance and up to 2X video transcoding capability over the previous generation G3 instances. Customers can configure virtual workstations with access to NVIDIA RTX Workstations at no additional cost on Nebula Cloud.

Features

POWERED BY NVIDIA T4 GPUS

NVIDIA T4 GPUs accelerate diverse cloud workloads, including deep learning training and inference and graphics. Based on the new NVIDIA Turing architecture, T4 GPUs feature multi-precision Turing Tensor Cores and new RT Cores. Turing Tensor Core technology with multi-precision computing for ML powers breakthrough performance from FP32 to FP16 to INT8, as well as INT4 precisions. It delivers up to 9.3X higher performance than CPUs on training and up to 36X on inference.

HIGH PERFORMANCE NETWORKING AND STORAGE

G4dn instances offer up to 100 Gbps of networking for applications requiring high throughput. G4dn instances also support Elastic Fabric adapter (EFA) that enables customers to run applications requiring high levels of inter-node communications at scale. These instances offer up to 1.8 TB of NVMe-based SSD storage for applications that require fast access to locally stored data.

RTX AND GAMING DRIVERS

G4dn instances offer NVIDIA RTX and Gaming drivers to customers at no additional cost. RTX drivers can be used to provide high quality virtual workstations for a wide range of visually intensive workflows. The Gaming driver provides unparalleled graphics and compute support for game development.
