Articul8 is accelerating their training and deployment of domain-specific models using Amazon SageMaker HyperPod, achieving over 95% cluster utilization and a 35% improvement in productivity.
SageMaker HyperPod provides fault-tolerant compute clusters, efficient cluster utilization through observability, and seamless model experimentation using Slurm and Amazon EKS.
Articul8 develops domain-specific models for industry sectors like supply chain, energy, and semiconductors, achieving significant accuracy and performance gains over general-purpose models.
The A8-SupplyChain model achieves 92% accuracy and threefold performance gains over general-purpose models.
SageMaker HyperPod enabled Articul8 to rapidly iterate on DSM training, optimize model training performance, and reduce AI deployment time and total cost of ownership.
The platform offers efficient cluster management, automated failure recovery, and observability through Amazon CloudWatch and Grafana.
Articul8's setup with SageMaker HyperPod and Managed Grafana empowered rapid experimentation, leading to superior real-world performance for domain-specific models.
The cluster setup includes head and compute nodes, shared volumes, local storage, Slurm scheduler, and accounting for job runtime information.
Articul8 confirmed the performance of A100 and achieved near linear scaling with distributed training, reducing training time significantly.
Through SageMaker HyperPod, Articul8's DSMs demonstrated superior performance, accelerated AI deployment time, and lowered total cost of ownership.
