Cloudless-Training framework boosts geo-distributed ML efficiency and cuts costs

Researchers have developed a framework called Cloudless-Training to enhance the efficiency of machine learning model training across geographically distributed cloud resources. The system addresses challenges in resource utilization and communication overhead on wide area networks. It employs a two-layer architecture for elastic scheduling and introduces new synchronization strategies like asynchronous SGD with gradient accumulation and inter-PS model averaging. Experiments demonstrated significant cost reductions and training speedups while maintaining model correctness. AI

IMPACT Introduces a novel framework to potentially reduce costs and speed up geo-distributed ML training.

    Cloudless-Training: A Framework to Improve Efficiency of Geo-Distributed ML Training

    arXiv:2303.05330v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Geo-distributed ML training can benefit many emerging ML scenarios (e.g., large model training, federated learning) with multi-regional cloud resources and wide area network. However, its efficiency is limited due to 2 challenges.…
