These microservices are based on Golang and comprise a variety of domains such as Metadata Discovery, DVR Playlist, and Channel Authorization that serve as the core backend systems for DIRECTV STREAM and DIRECTV Everywhere. “We moved our Kubernetes nodes running DIRECTV STREAM microservices to Graviton2-based instances. DIRECTV STREAM allows DIRECTV to focus on its customers, people, and vendors as it continues to deliver innovative entertainment experiences where, when and how people want it. This improvement provides higher performance benefits for HPC applications.ĭIRECTV has been at the forefront of entertainment for nearly three decades. They also support DDR5 memory that provides 50% more memory bandwidth compared to DDR4. AWS Graviton3E processors deliver up to 35% higher vector-instruction performance compared to AWS Graviton3 processors. AWS Graviton3 processors deliver up to 3x better performance compared to AWS Graviton2 processors for ML workloads, including support for bfloat16. They provide up to 25% better compute performance, up to 2x higher floating-point performance, and up to 2x faster cryptographic workload performance compared to AWS Graviton2 processors. Thousands of customers, including Epic Games, DIRECTV, Intuit, Lyft, and Formula 1 are running production workloads on Graviton2-based instances with significant performance gains and cost savings.ĪWS Graviton3 processors are the latest in the AWS Graviton processor family. Many AWS services, including Amazon Aurora, Amazon ElastiCache, Amazon EMR, AWS Lambda, and AWS Fargate, also support Graviton2-based instances for a fully managed experience with significant price performance benefits. Graviton2-based instances support a wide range of general purpose, burstable, compute-optimized, memory-optimized, storage-optimized, and accelerated computing workloads including application servers, microservices, high-performance computing (HPC), CPU-based machine learning (ML) inference, video encoding, electronic design automation, gaming, open-source databases, and in-memory caches.

Graviton2-based instances provide the best price performance for workloads in Amazon EC2.

AWS Graviton processors are designed by AWS to deliver the best price performance for your cloud workloads running in Amazon EC2.ĪWS Graviton2 processors deliver a major leap in performance and capabilities over first-generation AWS Graviton processors.
