For training I find wherever I can get the cheapest gpus for my training set, usually aws is the winner. But we operate in 3 clouds. For inference it’s complicated. A lot of that is cheaper to do on the right low priority/spot/preemptive machine. Tpus seem to be exceptional at operations like soft max. I wonder how well fpgas might be good at some ml applications you might be thinking of. It all depends honestly.
- martinpb 8y agoThis is one of my biggest concerns - The cost of gpu's with repeated training, etc. That's an interesting approach to use multiple clouds; I had not thought of that. So thank you for that insight. Cheers sir.
