Mar 18, 2026 · Updated Jun 5, 2026

Amazon EC2 will add instances accelerated by NVIDIA RTX PRO 4500 Blackwell Server Edition GPUs, making AWS the first major cloud provider to announce support. These instances suit workloads like conversational AI, data analytics, content generation, and graphics.

Amazon EC2 is adding instances accelerated by NVIDIA RTX PRO 4500 Blackwell Server Edition GPUs, announced at NVIDIA GTC 2026. AWS is the first major cloud provider to announce support for these GPUs. The new instances will run on the AWS Nitro System and cover a broad set of workloads: data analytics, conversational AI, content generation, recommender systems, video streaming, video rendering, and graphics-intensive tasks. Availability is listed as coming soon — no release date specified.

This positions AWS ahead of competing cloud providers in Blackwell GPU availability. The RTX PRO 4500 Server Edition is part of NVIDIA's Blackwell architecture, and its addition to EC2 expands the GPU options available to teams building AI inference, analytics, and graphics workloads on AWS.

Factor Blackwell Server Edition GPU support into AI compute planning for 2026. AWS lists these instances as coming soon, so teams scoping infrastructure can include them in their roadmap.
