Unveiling FlexEDA ¨C our groundbreaking, patent-pending pay-per-use cloud solution. This model offers unparalleled flexibility and grants unrestricted access to the entire Synopsys Cloud application suite. Experience the power of unlimited parallel processing, slashing time-to-result metrics dramatically¡ªfrom weeks to mere minutes. With FlexEDA, we've obliterated traditional resource barriers, ensuring you have unfettered access, anytime you need.
Seamless Job Scheduling and Bursting
Why companies are looking for a hybrid solution
Many companies use both an on-prem datacenter as well as cloud contract with a cloud service provider for their chip design needs. On-prem computing infrastructure may not have the capacity at a given moment, or the most advanced resources available, to support chip design from start to finish. However, utilizing cloud computing for burst computing requires manual upload and download of data which can take time away design time as data is synced.
How the Synopsys Cloud Hybrid Solution works
Synopsys Cloud Hybrid enables design teams to burst their EDA workloads to the cloud securely, seamlessly, and quickly. Design teams can simply submit an EDA job to the scheduler and move on to their next task. Meanwhile, the secure hybrid solution automatically splits the job between cloud and on-prem compute resources based on available capacity, and the jobs run simultaneously. All of the data generated by the job is synchronized automatically and in real-time between the cloud and on-prem, so there is no need to manually transfer data. Output data is automatically synchronized back to on-prem compute resources for analysis and processing.

Dive Into Deployment Models
BYOC and SaaS Options with Synopsys Cloud
Collaborating with top-tier cloud giants, Synopsys eliminates the complexities of cloud infrastructure setup. From SaaS deployments to the flexibility of BYOC (Bring Your Own Cloud), we ensure a seamless transition, granting you the freedom to deploy EDA workloads according to your vision.
BYOC:?Collaborate directly with Azure, AWS, or Google Cloud, retaining full control over your cloud compute. Leverage Synopsys Cloud for license management automation, FlexEDA pay-per-use, and detailed usage analytics. Run the same flows with your existing scripts.?
SaaS:?Streamline your design process with our SaaS deployment model. Skip infrastructure setup and license server hassles. Dive into design with one contract granting access to all essential software, hardware, IP, multi-vendor flows, and scheduling, all through a browser window.
On-Premises: Teams that run EDA tools on-prem using their own compute can also leverage Synospys Cloud for license management automation capabilities.

Reduces Compute Costs by up to 75%
Spot and and On-Demand VMs
The Synopsys ChipSpot solution is built on the concept of creating a ¡°virtual machine array¡± optimized for each EDA tool which contains a mix of Spot and on-demand VMs.
Based on termination signal predictions from its AI-driven algorithm, the solution migrates the running EDA workload, live, to an on-demand VM in the VM array, thus reducing the chances of the workload being terminated.
Once spot availability eases, the running state is migrated back to a spot VM in the array.
Synopsys ChipSpot enables customers to save up to 75% off on-demand compute prices with 99.5% reliability.
