Description
The Elastic Fabric Adapter (EFA) serves as a specialized network interface for Amazon EC2 instances, allowing users to efficiently run applications that demand high inter-node communication at scale within the AWS environment. By utilizing a custom-designed operating system (OS) that circumvents traditional hardware interfaces, EFA significantly boosts the performance of communications between instances, which is essential for effectively scaling such applications. This technology facilitates the scaling of High-Performance Computing (HPC) applications that utilize the Message Passing Interface (MPI) and Machine Learning (ML) applications that rely on the NVIDIA Collective Communications Library (NCCL) to thousands of CPUs or GPUs. Consequently, users can achieve the same high application performance found in on-premises HPC clusters while benefiting from the flexible and on-demand nature of the AWS cloud infrastructure. EFA can be activated as an optional feature for EC2 networking without incurring any extra charges, making it accessible for a wide range of use cases. Additionally, it seamlessly integrates with the most popular interfaces, APIs, and libraries for inter-node communication needs, enhancing its utility for diverse applications.
Description
Lambda is building the cloud designed for superintelligence by delivering integrated AI factories that combine dense power, liquid cooling, and next-generation NVIDIA compute into turnkey systems. Its platform supports everything from rapid prototyping on single GPU instances to running massive distributed training jobs across full GB300 NVL72 superclusters. With 1-Click Clusters™, teams can instantly deploy optimized B200 and H100 clusters prepared for production-grade AI workloads. Lambda’s shared-nothing, single-tenant security model ensures that sensitive data and models remain isolated at the hardware level. SOC 2 Type II certification and caged-cluster options make it suitable for mission-critical use cases in enterprise, government, and research. NVIDIA’s latest chips—including the GB300, HGX B300, HGX B200, and H200—give organizations unprecedented computational throughput. Lambda’s infrastructure is built to scale with ambition, capable of supporting workloads ranging from inference to full-scale training of foundation models. For AI teams racing toward the next frontier, Lambda provides the power, security, and reliability needed to push boundaries.
