This document discusses how Amazon Web Services (AWS) provides high-performance computing (HPC) capabilities through elastic cloud computing resources. It describes AWS computing instances like EC2 that provide configurable compute capacity and GPU-accelerated instances. The document also outlines how users can get started with HPC on AWS through a simple 4-step process and notes the ecosystem of independent software vendors supporting HPC workloads on AWS.
