Customer Spotlight - Transforming Chip Design with Astera Labs on Amazon Web Services (AWS) We’re excited to highlight our partnership with Astera Labs, which revolutionized their chip design process on Amazon Web Services (AWS), slashing cloud costs by 50% while doubling compute capacity. Challenge Astera Labs faced escalating compute costs during the mission-critical tape-out stage of chip design, where reliability and resource efficiency are paramount. The fluctuating workload demands made cost management a significant challenge. Solution By partnering with Exostellar Inc. and leveraging the Infrastructure Optimizer solution, Astera optimized their Electronic Design Automation (EDA) workflows on Amazon Web Services (AWS). This innovative approach allowed them to seamlessly switch between on-demand and spot instances, maximizing cost efficiency without compromising performance. Results - 50% Cloud Cost Reduction: Dramatic savings enabled more investment in innovation. - 2x Compute Capacity: Increased compute capacity within the same budget. - Enhanced Scalability: Scaled resources based on project demands without additional capital investment. - Operational Efficiency: Over 90,000 workload migrations maintained peak reliability. Impact This transformation not only accelerated the chip development process but also enabled Astera Labs to bring products to market faster. The significant cost savings and operational efficiency have empowered them to reinvest in innovation and growth. "Exostellar’s Infrastructure Optimizer allowed us to leverage the cost-effectiveness of spot instances with reliability as if they were on-demand instances, allowing Astera to run more simulation and physical design workloads resulting in reduced development time and quicker time to market." - Jitendra Mohan, CEO, Astera Labs Read the full case study - https://lnkd.in/gzCtj8y4 #AsteraLabs #Exostellar #ChipDesign #AWS #CloudOptimization #CostEfficiency #61DAC #Innovation #Semiconductor #EDA #TechTransformation #CloudComputing #ChipDesign
