Amazon SageMaker HyperPod now supports EFA-only network interfaces

Amazon SageMaker HyperPod now supports EFA-only network interfaces for cluster instance groups, enabling you to configure dedicated Elastic Fabric Adapter (EFA) devices without the traditional Elastic Network Adapter (ENA) for IP networking. SageMaker HyperPod is a purpose-built infrastructure for AI/ML model development that provides a resilient, high-performance environment with built-in fault tolerance and automated cluster recovery. Now with EFA-only, you can scale AI/ML clusters further without risking IP address exhaustion in your VPC.
