Amazon CEO Andy Jassy weighs in on the rapid growth of our chips business
Amazon's custom chip revenue run rate exceeds $20 billion—and is growing triple-digit percentages year over year.
Our chips are purpose-built for cloud and AI workloads, delivering the price-performance, scale, and efficiency that let more builders push AI forward.
Amazon has invested over a decade in custom silicon, designing chips in lockstep with the teams building frontier AI models. The result: hardware that arrives optimized for real customer workloads, manufactured and deployed at unprecedented speed and scale.

- Tour the micro metropolis of a Trainium chip, where calculations run 24/7 and data commutes at light speed.
- From co-development with AI model teams to automation-ready manufacturing, Amazon's custom chips, Trainium and Graviton, are designed to perform at scale from day one.
- Startups and enterprises are choosing Trainium for its industry-leading price-performance, training ambitious models and running inference more efficiently.
- Agentic AI systems that reason, plan, and take action are driving massive central processing unit (CPU) demand. Graviton delivers up to 40% better price-performance, and 98% of top EC2 customers use it.
- AWS powers the work of “inference” with custom chips, smart routing systems, and purpose-built infrastructure—making AI faster and more affordable.
