Getting the Best Price Performance for Numerical Weather Prediction Workloads on AWS

In this post, we will provide an overview of Numerical Weather Prediction (NWP) workloads, and the AWS HPC-optimized services for it. We’ll test three popular NWP codes: WRF, MPAS, and FV3GFS. Read the Post on the AWS Blog Channel

Noise in Quantum Computing

Customers looking to solve their hardest computational problems often wonder about the production-readiness of quantum computing. They want to know when a full-scale, fault-tolerant quantum computer will be available, and what the obstacles …

Accelerating Genomics Pipelines Using Intel’s Open Omics Acceleration Framework on AWS

In this blog, we showcase the first version of Open Omics and benchmark three applications that are used in processing NGS data – sequence alignment tools BWA-MEM, minimap2, and single cell ATAC-Seq on Xeon-based Amazon Elastic Compute …

Building a Scalable Predictive Modeling Framework in AWS – Part 3

In this final part of this three-part blog series on building predictive models at scale in AWS, we will use the synthetic dataset and the models generated in the previous post to showcase the model updating and sensitivity analysis …

Building a Scalable Predictive Modeling Framework in AWS – Part 2

In the first part of this three-part blog series, we introduced the aws-do-pm framework for building predictive models at scale in AWS. In this blog, we showcase a sample application for predicting the life of batteries in a fleet of …

Building a Scalable Predictive Modeling Framework in AWS – Part 1

Predictive models have powered the design and analysis of real-world systems such as jet engines, automobiles, and powerplants for decades. These models are used to provide insights on system performance and to run simulations, at a …

Understanding the AWS Batch termination process

In this blog post, we help you understand the AWS Batch job termination process and how you may take actions to gracefully terminate a job by capturing SIGTERM signal inside the application. It provides you with an efficient way to exit …

Encoding workflow dependencies in AWS Batch

This post covers the different ways you can encode a dependency between basic and array jobs in AWS Batch. We also cover why you may want to encode dependencies outside of Batch altogether using a workflow system like AWS Step Functions or …
