TMTPOST — Synopsys has entered a multi-year strategic agreement with Amazon valued at more than $1 billion to accelerate development of Amazon’s custom silicon and AWS infrastructure. Under the deal, Amazon will expand its use of Synopsys silicon intellectual property, electronic design automation tools and AI-driven engineering software. Synopsys will optimize its software for Amazon’s Trainium and Graviton processors and will use AWS services, including Amazon EC2 and Amazon Bedrock, to speed its own product development. The agreement positions Amazon as a lead customer for Synopsys’ application-optimized silicon IP business and extends a long-standing collaboration between the two companies.
