Impactful scheduling for GPU clusters

On the AI Infrastructure team at Ai2, we’re responsible for providing the institute’s GPU compute capacity, specifically targeting large, distributed training workloads.

Key points

  • Next is impact: how often the most valuable workloads are chosen to receive resources.
  • The capstone of the pyramid is utilization: the fraction of GPU capacity used over the lifetime of a workload.
  • At Ai2, we manage thousands of NVIDIA H100, B200, and B300 GPUs arranged in clusters ranging in size from 88 to 1024 GPUs.
  • One way to think about this is that every available GPU hour on our cluster has 2-3 different research workloads competing for it.
