Basically a set of fine-tuned virtual machine images for Amazon Cloud.

Yeah, I was hoping that this would be an nvidia managed cloud platform as a new competitor in the space. With only AWS, Azure, and Google there is definitely room for another deep learning cloud competitor. But this announcement makes sense in the context of the new AWS P3 instances, so there is definitely a partnership going on that nvidia wouldnt break from.

Cloud is hard business though, and requires far more than chips.

Not really seeing a material difference between this and just using one of the available machine learning AMI's on EC2. Relatively anticlimactic

From NVidia's perspective, the more of the GPU computing stack it's in control of, the better.

"This eliminates time-consuming and difficult do-it-yourself software integration..." writing easy to integrate, open source, software would also eliminate that

I'll take "Things Nvidia would never do" for $200, Alex.

Thanks for this, I had no idea it existed and it looks amazing! Definitely trying it out tonight.

Post your experience here afterwards.

Ok, just started it.

I'm ABSOLUTELY FLOORED. Like, to the point where I' debating selling my gaming PC if I can get a better internet connection to reduce the input lag a bit. But even with that, the input lag is barely noticeable.

I'm playing Destiny 2, highest graphics settings, at 1920x1080, totally smoothly.... on my 2012 MacBook.

This is a game changer. Thanks for the suggestion!!

I feel the exact same way. My productivity is probably gonna take a nosedive tho.

I feel I need to tell everyone I know about this.
