Today, Modular is excited to announce a partnership with Amazon Web Services (AWS), the world’s leading and largest cloud server provider. Together, we are bringing the benefits of the MAX Platform to AWS production services everywhere, powering innovative AI features for billions of users around the world.

”At AWS we are focused on powering the future of AI by providing the largest enterprises and fastest-growing startups with services that lower their costs and enable them to move faster. The MAX Platform supercharges this mission for our millions of AWS customers, helping them bring the newest GenAI innovations and traditional AI use cases to market faster,” said Bratin Saha, AWS VP of Machine Learning & AI services.

The AWS Marketplace is also the only place you’ll be able to take advantage of the MAX Platform on Graviton CPUs, Amazon’s ARM-based processors for compute-intensive workloads like Artificial Intelligence programs. The MAX Platform is able to supercharge Graviton CPUs, executing your AI models with up to 5X higher performance and up to 80% cost savings out-of-the-box when compared with existing AI infrastructure.

And with MAX’s hardware portability, moving your workloads to Graviton requires zero migration costs — it just works out of the box! You will also be able to utilize the power of MAX Serving and Mojo directly in the engine for full customizability and workload tuning. Read more about MAX in our blog post on key announcements at ModCon 2023.

Go to modul.ar/max to sign up to get early access to MAX on AWS Marketplace and stay tuned for more updates in Q1 2024. We’re super excited about our partnership with AWS to ensure that MAX is available everywhere!

Go forth and build incredible things!
