Optimizing PyTorch Training and Serving in Practice
Running AI/ML workloads in different clouds present unique challenges. The key to a manageable multi-cloud architecture is the ability to seamlessly access data across environments with high performance and low cost.
This webinar is designed for data platform engineers, data infra engineers, data engineers, and ML engineers who work with multiple data sources in hybrid or multi-cloud environments. Chanchan and Bin will guide the audience through using Alluxio to greatly simplify data access and make model training and serving more efficient in these environments.
You will learn:
- How to access data in multi-region, hybrid, and multi-cloud like accessing a local file system
- How to run PyTorch to read datasets and write checkpoints to remote storage with Alluxio as the distributed data access layer
- Real-world examples and insights from tech giants like Uber, AliPay and more

Scaling experimentation in digital marketplaces is crucial for driving growth and enhancing user experiences. However, varied methodologies and a lack of experiment governance can hinder the impact of experimentation leading to inconsistent decision-making, inefficiencies, and missed opportunities for innovation.
At Poshmark, we developed a homegrown experimentation platform, Lightspeed, that allowed us to make reliable and confident reads on product changes, which led to a 10x growth in experiment velocity and positive business outcomes along the way.
This session will provide a deep dive into the best practices and lessons learned from successful implementations of large-scale experiments. We will explore the importance of experimentation, overcome scalability challenges, and gain insights into the frameworks and technologies that enable effective testing.
In the rapidly evolving world of e-commerce, visual search has become a game-changing technology. Poshmark, a leading fashion resale marketplace, has developed Posh Lens – an advanced visual search engine that revolutionizes how shoppers discover and purchase items.
Under the hood of Posh Lens lies Milvus, a vector database enabling efficient product search and recommendation across our vast catalog of over 150 million items. However, with such an extensive and growing dataset, maintaining high-performance search capabilities while scaling AI infrastructure presents significant challenges.
In this talk, Mahesh Pasupuleti shares:
- The architecture and strategies to scale Milvus effectively within the Posh Lens infrastructure
- Key considerations include optimizing vector indexing, managing data partitioning, and ensuring query efficiency amidst large-scale data growth
- Distributed computing principles and advanced indexing techniques to handle the complexity of Poshmark’s diverse product catalog
