Back to basics: EC2 compute best practices for cloud modernization (COP209)
Intel and AWS Partnership with Horei
Highlights
Intel and AWS have an extensive partnership to support ISV partners like Horei.
Intel is focused on optimizing Horei's instances on the latest Intel Xeon processors to improve performance, security, and cost-efficiency.
Intel has the Intel Accelerator Program (IAP) with AWS to provide more investment and sponsorship for ISV partners on AWS infrastructure.
Intel is producing chips domestically with AWS to avoid supply chain issues and ensure security by reducing reliance on adversarial partners.
Technical Insights
Fari, the Intel Solutions Architect, explains the different EC2 instance families and generations, highlighting the performance and cost advantages of the latest instances.
Intel has worked closely with Horei to benchmark and optimize their workloads across the 400+ Intel instances on AWS, leveraging Intel's software optimizations and hardware accelerators like AMX, AVX-512, and others.
The optimization efforts have resulted in significant performance improvements, up to 25% for Horei's use case, which allows them to achieve greater density and cost savings.
Horei's Value Proposition
Horei provides a BYOD (Bring Your Own Device) solution that enables secure and compliant remote work by separating personal and work environments on the user's device.
Horei's virtual workspace approach ensures that no sensitive data ever resides on the user's physical device, addressing data leakage and security concerns.
Horei has found success in the government, healthcare, and financial sectors, where compliance and security are critical, by meeting stringent requirements like NIST, FIPS, and FedRAMP.
The partnership with Intel and AWS has allowed Horei to optimize their solution for performance and cost-efficiency, making it an attractive option for large-scale deployments like the 10,000 user rollout with the U.S. Air Force.
