Amazon EC2 為了 GPU 而推出的 P2 type:「New P2 Instance Type for Amazon EC2 – Up to 16 GPUs」。
p2.large 有這樣的規格:
This new instance type incorporates up to 8 NVIDIA Tesla K80 Accelerators, each running a pair of NVIDIA GK210 GPUs. Each GPU provides 12 GB of memory (accessible via 240 GB/second of memory bandwidth), and 2,496 parallel processing cores.
而最大台的 p2.16xlarge

的記錄 $13.338/hr (us-east-1),來到了 $14.4/hr...
另外也推出了 deep learning AMI,內裝了一堆常見支援 GPU 的 ML framework:
In order to help you to make great use of one or more P2 instances, we are launching a Deep Learning AMI today.
