1. Launch a Runtime Instance & Install Required Packages

  • Launch an F1 instance using Centos 7, Ubuntu or Amazon Linux 2 AMI's.

2. Install Runtime Drivers

  • Build XRT on either your runtime or a similar instance using the XRT build steps.
  • Install the XRT package on your runtime instance

3. Run your FPGA accelerated application on your Runtime Instance.

  • Source the runtime setup script:
$ source /opt/xilinx/xrt/setup.sh
  • Run application to verify that it works:
$ ./helloworld ./vector_addition.awsxclbin
  • You might want to add a link to the setup command: /opt/xilinx/xrt/setup.sh in the /etc/profile.d path to be able to setup on start.

4. Create your Runtime AMI based on your Instance.

  • Once you have your application running you should be able to create a Runtime AMI based your Runtime Instance as specified here.

5. Make Runtime AMI available on the AWS Marketplace
