feature_request: Support IBM DDL (Distributed Deep Learning) on PowerAI #439

Closed tanmayb123 closed 5 years ago

tanmayb123 commented 5 years ago

Feature Description

Support using IBM DDL to distribute training to multiple machines with multiple GPUs.

Reason

This would allow for much faster Neural Architecture Search. On Nimbix, for example, you could train with 12 machines with 4 P100 GPUs on each (48 GPUs total).

Solution

Support the DDL framework and enable AutoKeras to work across all machines provided.

Alternative Solutions

N/A

Additional Context

I'd be glad to help out with implementing DDL support or providing access to DDL/PowerAI machines.
