Overall Satisfaction with Amazon Deep Learning AMIs
We use AWS EC2 for training machine learning models. For spinning up these instances, we use prebuilt AMIs specific for Deep Learning. These AMIs help a lot in setting up the environment very easily without any worries of installing CUDA, Nvidia Drivers, and then specific libraries like Pytorch, and TensorFlow. Support for various Conda environments is also available. The amazing part of this is that it provides support for different types of machines like Ubuntu, Linux, Amazon OS, etc.
