The documentation for the F2 FPGA Developer Kit including our User Guide, tutorials, code snippets, and more can now be found on our ReadTheDocs webstie.
Please note that the documentation and assets provided on this branch and others prefixed with f2 are relevant to F2 instances only!
The F2 FPGA Development Kit is a hardware-software development kit that enables developers to create accelerators for the high-performance accelerator cards on EC2 F2 instances. Using the development kit, you can architect, simulate, optimize, and test your designs.
We are retiring the F1 instances on December 20, 2025.
Only existing F1 customers who have run F1 instances anytime between Dec 2023 - Dec 2024 can restart or launch new F1 instances. Effective December 20, 2025, F1 instances or access data stored on F1 instance local storage will be no longer available. Please transfer any needed data stored in F1 instance local storage before December 20, 2025.
