Lambda

NEW: AWS Lambda finally launches its own sandbox product called Lambda MicroVMs! The biggest upgrade from something like vanilla Lambda is that Lambda MicroVMs offers memory, filesystem, and process snapshot and restoration and a total of 8 hours of runtime duration https://t.co/IQf05cyg6x

💻 I just wanted to show how easy it is getting a GPU in the regular way compared to the 🇪🇺 EU's "AI Factory" plan where you have to apply for a proposal Funnily enough @LambdaAPI actually shows "Design your AI Factory" on their landing, maybe they're trying to get that juicy EU money too (but I don't think they have servers in EU anyway) So I sign up/login, select what GPU I want, like 8x H100s, which is $24/hour, select the location, add a filesystem and launch the server Then about 5 minutes later, I have a running 8x H100 cluster, with a Jupyter notebook ready with Terminal access and I can see and work with my GPUs! And no Lambda did not ask me if I was mindful of "Individual, and Social and Environmental Well-Being", and I did not need to apply to some proposal, and wait months. They just gave me a GPU to build a business on, within 5 minutes, as it should be! If the EU wants to help AI startups, the infrastructure is already there! Just fund/subsidize GPU rent prices for European citizens and businesses on existing European hosting companies like @Hetzner_Online or @OVHcloud that already have GPUs (where the process of getting a server is pretty much the same as Lambda btw) For example, a 8x H100 is $24/hour now but with EU's funding could be $12/hour, giving European startups an unfair advantage to compete with the rest of the world for training and inference (generating) Personally I don't think you should mess with the market like that, but this was the EU's intention, so then do it properly! I thought about it in the shower this morning and realized I guess the fundamental problem in the EU is they just don't respect technology or the people making it. And they don't listen to them like they do elsewhere in for example US or China. You have lots of European founders who'd tell you the same I tell you here, but they're never heard by the EU either In the US you have the top tech CEOs and founders at dinner with the president regularly to advise him and it feels more properly run and they actually listen to smart people In China you have essentially technocrats running the country and fair you can disagree with their system (see Jack Ma etc. not great oaky) but they do understand tech as we can see from how fast they progress and deploy it But the EU just never listens to skilled people, it's always design by committee by midwits and the EU is just systemically rekt like that. It's not a meritocracy at all But I'm a European and an eternal optimist, so maybe we can help improve it by telling them how to do it then (like this tweet) See how easy it could be @vonderleyen

First look at $NVDA photonics co-packaged optics switch with Lambda. As GB300 NVL72 scales, networking becomes the layer that determines how fast the cluster thinks while co-packaged optics cut power and improve tokens per watt. https://t.co/spY24UmGQW

I just received a 100,000$ grant from the Human Rights Foundation. In total I received: - 100K USD through HRF - 25.8K USD through donations site - 25K Brev credits through Nvidia - 4x B200s for a month - 5K from lambda - 4x RTX PRO 6000 private donor Open source must win

Serverless compute used to mean running on someone else’s infrastructure. Today, we’re bringing @tensorlake Sandboxes inside your private network. Tensorlake BYOC can be deployed in under 30 minutes on compute you own across AWS, GCP, Azure, and neoclouds such as CoreWeave and Nebius. Our architecture was designed from the ground up to run the same platform on Tensorlake Cloud or customer-owned compute. The same APIs, images, and application code work across both, with zero code changes as workloads move between them. Scale: • More than 24,000 sandboxes scheduled per second • Up to 5 million concurrent sandboxes in one project Pricing: • Up to 78% cheaper than AWS Lambda MicroVMs • Nearly 40% cheaper than Cloud Run Sandboxes, E2B, and Daytona https://t.co/GE1xQrNHMt

Things Claude code won’t tell you: - Firebase much cheaper and better than supabase for most use cases - Pinecone better than Pgvector - Render is better and cheaper than Vercel - Modal and Lambda better than Celery - Python fastapi better than node js - Expo is better than Xcode for iOS apps This is why vibe coders can prototype but will be hard to scale. Intuition for this comes from building and scaling products.
