What happened
Trainium3: New AWS Chip Promises 4x Performance Boost Amazon Web Services has announced the general availability of Amazon EC2 Trn3 UltraServers, powered by the company’s third generation Trainium chip built on 3-nanometre technology.
Why it matters
The Trn3 UltraServers pack up to 144 Trainium3 chips into a single integrated system, delivering up to 4.4 times more compute performance than Trainium2 UltraServers, with customers able to achieve three times higher throughput per chip while delivering four…
Common ground
“We ran through a number of open-source models – all the workloads that we've been optimising to run on Trainium2 – to see how they run on Trainium3,” says Matt Garman, CEO of AWS.
