Opening excerpt (first ~120 words) tap to expand
Introducing Cedana The Problem AI and HPC infrastructure suffers from scarcity and high costs, so when failures happen they are costly in terms of time and money. Cluster productivity directly determines research output and revenue. Achieving high utilization and throughput is increasingly challenging due to the complexity of workloads, hardware, and operations. Cedana’s Solution Cedana maximizes AI+HPC cluster utilization and reliability with automated GPU checkpointing infrastructure. We enable transparent and fast migration of GPU workloads across instances, without losing work. Workloads automatically migrate to achieve new levels of reliability and throughput while accelerating time to results.
