Exciting. Hopefully, the GPUs are made by Nvidia and support CUDA. I'm curious what the pricing will be.

- waynecochran 10y agoYep. I use an Amazon EC2 Linux AMI with nVidia GRID GPU's using CUDA and OpenCV and it works like a charm. Of course it is headless so I tunnel X11 through ssh and use xv to look at the images I am rendering. Saves me from buying hardware. Costs me $0.68 an hour -- well worth it.
- puzzle 10y agoThey don't mention any manufacturers and do not support CUDA, just OpenGL. It's clear what they are doing: you call Amazon's OpenGL library, which applies some batching and compression when talking to a remote GPU somewhere else in the cluster. You are not allowed to or even need to know what kind of hardware is on the other side. They could even pick different manufacturers. And because of this proxying, you can only use an open and vendor-neutral API like GL, hence no CUDA support.
- vinayan3 10y agoI read another comment on /r/machinelearning it's likely that this won't be for CUDA. They would have highlighted CUDA support instead of just showing OpenGL. Furthermore, they only showed Windows maybe Linux might not be available?
