You should compare this to the cost of buying an FPGA. It can be cost-effective.

- mng2 9y agoThe 'VU9P has ~2.5M logic elements and 6840 DSP units. The M2S090 has ~90K logic elements and 84 math blocks. It's nowhere near the same class of device. The AWS FPGA offering only makes sense if you absolutely need a massive FPGA connected to massive amounts of RAM, and don't want to spend the bucks to own it yourself.
