Business outcome

In addition to receiving technical guidance, has collaborated with the AWS team on marketing opportunities. customers can simplify deployment and billing by purchasing ’s generative AI platform-as-a-service through AWS Marketplace , a curated digital catalog that customers can use to find, buy, deploy, and manage third-party software, data, and services to build solutions and run their businesses.

Solution

Fireworks.ai set out to build a lightning-fast, affordable, and customizable generative artificial intelligence (AI) inference solution for its customers. With billions of parameters, foundation models require powerful, often costly compute resources as they’re put into production. From its inception, has collaborated closely with AWS teams to determine how best to optimize compute power for its highly demanding inference engine. At first, the company used Amazon EC2 P4d Instances , powered by NVIDIA A100 Tensor Core GPUs, which offer high performance for machine learning training and high-performance computing applications in the cloud. In July 2023, AWS announced Amazon EC2 P5 Instances, the next generation of Amazon EC2 P4 instances and the highest-performance GPU-based instances for deep learning and high performance computing applications. “AWS has the latest and greatest hardware,” Dzhulgakov says.

Scoring methodology

How scores are calculated

Customer Reference Value measures usefulness as a customer reference. Evidence Confidence measures the quality and traceability of available evidence, not independent verification.

Customer reference value77/100
