BoF: AI Training in Kubernetes BoF - Marlow Weston, SchedMD; Ricardo Rocha, CERN; Alex Scammon, G-research; Frederick Kautz, TestifySec
Wednesday November 13, 2024 2:30pm - 3:05pm MST
Salt Palace | Level 3 | 355 D
In this talk, we will lead you down the rabbit-hole of AI training in Kubernetes, where idealism and reality meet. We are not here to feed you tales of digital utopia. We are here to discuss what needs to change. Can Kubernetes be taught to handle the monstrous loads of large-scale AI training? Join a diverse group of engineers, AI researchers, and Kubernetes veterans to learn what problems need to be solved for optimal AI training within Kubernetes.  We will discuss solutions and challenges within this space and do comparisons between HPC systems and Kubernetes. Topics will include fine-grained resource control, scheduling, networking, and storage. If you think you can handle the unvarnished truth about Cloud Native AI, come armed with questions, war stories, and a tolerance for the absurd. Just be prepared to leave with more questions than answers-and maybe, if you are lucky, a sliver of insight.

Alex Scammon

Head of Open Source Development, G-research
I enjoy building motivated and effective engineering organizations. Whether at a large international company or a small local startup, I care about how we create products just as much as what those products actually are.
