The expanded partnership includes increased use of AWS compute services, cloud-native architecture, and Amazon custom silicon such as Graviton and Trainium processors. Pinterest says the infrastructure investment will support AI model training, inference workloads, and continued modernization of its platform.
“Pinterest is heavily investing in AI to make discovery more personal, visual and actionable for the hundreds of millions of people who use our platform every month. This expanded commitment with AWS gives us the compute flexibility, hardware optionality, and infrastructure efficiency to accelerate our AI vision for the next generation of visual discovery on Pinterest. This strategic partnership will help accelerate AI innovation at Pinterest, improving both our consumer experience and advertiser performance by advancing our proprietary models and our use of open-source models,” said Matt Madrigal, Chief Technology Officer at Pinterest.
Pinterest and AWS have worked together since 2010. Under the renewed agreement, Pinterest plans to continue migrating infrastructure to a Kubernetes-based architecture using Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service (EKS) to improve scalability and operational efficiency.
“Pinterest is building some of the most advanced visual AI systems on AWS, powering discovery for more than 600 million users. As one of our longest-standing customers, we know what it takes to support that scale securely and efficiently. AWS compute and purpose-built silicon like Trainium and Graviton give Pinterest the price-performance to train and run AI models at massive scale across both training and inference. This commitment provides Pinterest the AI infrastructure to move faster and deliver new experiences to users sooner,” said Dave Brown, Senior Vice President of Compute & Machine Learning Services at AWS.
Pinterest reports having more than 600 million monthly active users worldwide.
