Amazon Web Services is set to announce an update to its Graviton4 chip that includes 600 gigabytes per second of network bandwidth, what the company calls the highest offering in the public cloud. Ali Saidi, a distinguished engineer at AWS, likened the speed to a machine reading 100 music CDs a second. Graviton4, a central processing unit, or CPU, is one of many chip products that come from Amazon's Annapurna Labs in Austin, Texas. The chip is a win for the company's custom strategy and puttin
