Seamlessly burst EDA jobs to AWS using Synopsys Cloud Hybrid solution

This article discusses how semiconductor companies can efficiently burst Electronic Design Automation (EDA) jobs to AWS using the Synopsys Cloud Hybrid Solution, addressing challenges in chip design workflows.

• Enables seamless data synchronization between on-premises and cloud environments
• Eliminates manual data transfer between storage systems
• Supports six key Synopsys EDA applications including PrimeLib, VCS, and PrimeSim
• Performance testing showed comparable or better results compared to on-premises infrastructure
• Maintains consistent Quality of Results (QoR) across cloud and on-premises environments
• Can save up to several weeks of setup time per project

The solution helps semiconductor engineers overcome computational challenges by providing flexible, scalable cloud computing resources while maintaining data integrity and workflow efficiency.
