This post was contributed by Charlie Chuang, Madhu Vellakal, and Charunethran Panchalam Govindarajan. Since launching Research and Engineering Studio on AWS (RES), we have helped customers stand up self-service portals for research, engineering, and technical computing on AWS. As this space has matured, with a strong ecosystem of AWS Partners and complementary AWS services, we […]

Struggling with bottlenecks in your batch processing? AWS Batch’s new resource aware scheduling capability could be the solution your business needs. This feature allows you to define and manage consumable resources, helping maximize the use of your compute power. Check out our blog to learn more.

Exciting updates to AWS Batch on Amazon EKS! Configurable namespaces, persistent volume claims, and more. Check out our blog post to see how these features can help manage your complex containerized workloads.

EnginFrame Views users: check out this post on migration options to maintain secure remote access to your HPC environment. As AWS sunsets NICE EnginFrame, alternatives built on Amazon DCV can provide a seamless transition.

After careful consideration, we have made the decision to discontinue NICE EnginFrame including NICE EnginFrame views, effective September 25, 2025. If you want to continue using NICE EnginFrame beyond the end-of-support date, we recommend contacting NI-SP, an AWS partner with decades of experience implementing and supporting NICE EnginFrame for enterprises.

Today we discuss the performance results we saw from the new hpc7a instance, running HPC workloads like CFD, molecular dynamics, and weather prediction codes.

Today we are excited to announce that all 9000+ applications provided by the BioContainers community are available within ECR Public Gallery! You don’t need an AWS account to access these images, but having one allows many more pulls to the internet, and unmetered usage within AWS. If you perform any sort of bioinformatics analysis on AWS, you should check it out!

Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL) and AWS are joining forces to provide a training opportunity for emerging HPC tools and application. RADIUSS (Rapid Application Development via an Institutional Universal Software Stack) is a broad suite of open-source software projects originating from LLNL. Together we are hosting a tutorial series to give attendees hands-on experience with these cutting-edge technologies. Find out how to participate in these events in this blog post.

Today we’re excited to announce the availability of a new public Spack Binary Cache. In a collaboration, between AWS, E4S, Kitware, and the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL), Spack users now have access to a public build cache hosted on Amazon S3. The use of this Binary Cache will result in up to 20x faster install times for common Spack packages.

It’s often difficult to keep track of all the announcements AWS is making around HPC.
