ALLUXIO Highlights

White Paper | Rise of the Data Access Layer for Analytics & AI

Explores the transformative capabilities of the Data Access Layer and how it can simplify and accelerate your analytics and AI workloads. In this new research paper, Kevin Petrie, VP of Research at Eckerson Group, shares the architecture and use cases for a Data Access Layer and how it can help achieve analytics and AI goals with successful performance. 

Live Webinar| Efficient Data Loading for Model Training in AWS

Model training requires extensive computational and GPU resources. In this webinar, Greg Palmer will discuss best practices for efficient data loading during model training on AWS. He will demonstrate how to use Alluxio on EKS as a distributed cache to accelerate PyTorch training jobs that read datasets from S3. This architecture significantly improves the utilization of GPUs from 30% to 90%+, archives ~5x faster training, and lower cloud storage costs.

What you will learn:

  • The challenges of feeding data-hungry GPUs in the cloud
  • Best practices to accelerate model training by optimizing data loading on AWS
  • The reference architecture for running PyTorch jobs with Alluxio cache on EKS while reading data from S3, with benchmark results of training ResNet50 and BERT
  • How to use TensorBoard to identify bottlenecks in GPU utilization
