These include public AFIs, private AFIs that you own, and AFIs owned by other AWS accounts for which you have load permissions. F1 instances are designed to accelerate data center workloads including machine learning inference, data analytics, video processing, and genomics. Describes the Amazon FPGA Images (AFIs) available to you.

Amazon and Xilinx have both developed Getting Started Guides and Tutorials, available on GitHub, to help developers get up and running with Vitis and F1 in no time. To view a list of all FPGA-accelerated Apps on AWS Marketplace Click Here. A live demo of the Memcached accelerator running on F1 can be accessed on our website [9]. Launch an instance using the FPGA Developer AMI. AWS customers can discover, buy, and launch those In this paper, we present a Memcached accelerator implemented on the AWS FPGA cloud (F1 instance). Source: AWS. See also: AWS API Documentation. They rely on the Xilinx Ultrascale+ VU9P chip.Here are some of the specs (): over 2.5 million System Logic Cells (specs — PDF) and 6,840 DSP slices (specs — PDF).Yes, it’s a beast! We don’t need an F1 instance for emulation and synthesis, so it is recommended to use a lower cost instance for them. Coupled with the AWS FPGA github (link) repository you have all the needed tools, code samples, compile scripts, and debug interfaces to develop the FPGA accelerations for your F1 instances. The script can be found in the following location in the aws-fpga repository: The awsxclbin can be created by running the create_vitis_afi.sh script which is included in the aws-fpga GitHub repository. Amazon FPGA Image (awsxclbin) The awsxclbin is an Amazon specific version of the FPGA binary file (xclbin) produced by the Vitis software. The kit is avaliable on GitHub and includes all documentation on F1, internal FPGA interfaces, and compiler scripts for generating Amazon FPGA Images (AFIs). Compared to AWS ElastiCache, an AWS-managed CPU Memcached service, our Memcached accelerator provides up to 9 x better throughput and latency. describe-fpga-images is a paginated operation. See 'aws help' for descriptions of global parameters. The world’s fastest FPGA for accelerated computing is now accessible everywhere from the AWS Cloud. The workload uses data contained in the public AWS F1 FPGA Development Kit and the Xilinx Vivado EDA software suite provided by the AWS FPGA Developer AMI that you subscribed to in the first tutorial. Marketplace Developers can publish their accelerators to the AWS Marketplace, packaged as AMIs or API/SaaS. How do I Get Started with Vitis and AWS EC2 F1 instances? AWS FPGAs support multiple development environments to serve both hardware and software developers.
