AWS is an important cloud partner of AMD’s. They have had great success with EPYC and you can even see some of their customers’ success using EPYC.
Arm-based processors for the data center are designed and apply to very specific workloads, while x86 is the predominant architecture in the data center industry. While the Arm architecture has made some progress with several launches, AMD’s strategy with the AMD EPYC processor and the data center market is clear. We aim to gain market share by executing on our roadmap and providing our customers with the highest performance processors possible, running the vast majority of modern data center workloads.
We welcome continued diversification of the data center industry, including technology based on CPU, GPU, FPGAs, Arm and ASICs to deliver a heterogenous environment with workloads that are optimized for customers.
