I have a function which perform some mathematical operations and need a 16gb GPU system, But this function will not be triggered always and rest of time my system will not be in use. I came to know about AWS Lambda. Can I run GPU based algorithm on Lambda?? So that whenever I need GPU, I will get the system on cloud. I need a little description about it.
You can't specify the runtime environment for AWS Lambda functions, so no, you can't require the presence of a GPU (in fact the physical machines AWS chooses to put into its Lambda pool will almost certainly not have one).
Your best bet would be to run the GPU-requiring function as a Batch job on a compute cluster configured to use p-type instances. The guide here might be helpful.
Currently lambda doesn't have GPU.
However, if you just need to do inference; the emulation via CPU works fine on AWS lambda; here is an article that goes into more details:
