Scaling Distributed Machine Learning with In-Network Aggregation
read the original abstract
Training machine learning models in parallel is an increasingly important workload. We accelerate distributed parallel training by designing a communication primitive that uses a programmable switch dataplane to execute a key step of the training process. Our approach, SwitchML, reduces the volume of exchanged data by aggregating the model updates from multiple workers in the network. We co-design the switch processing with the end-host protocols and ML frameworks to provide an efficient solution that speeds up training by up to 5.5$\times$ for a number of real-world benchmark models.
