DATA PARALLEL VS. MODEL PARALLEL§ Data Parallel (“Between-Graph Replication”)
§ Send exact same model to each device§ Each device operates on partition of data
§ ie. Spark sends same function to many workers§ Each worker operates on their partition of data
§ Model Parallel (“In-Graph Replication”)§ Send different partition of model to each device§ Each device operates on all data§ Difficult, but required for larger models with lower-memory GPUs
SYNCHRONOUS VS. ASYNCHRONOUS§ Synchronous
§ Nodes compute gradients§ Nodes update Parameter Server (PS)§ Nodes sync on PS for latest gradients
§ Asynchronous§ Some nodes delay in computing gradients§ Nodes don’t update PS§ Nodes get stale gradients from PS§ May not converge due to stale reads!
CHIEF WORKER§ Chief Defaults to Worker Task 0
§ Task 0 is guaranteed to exist§ Performs Maintenance Tasks
§ Writes log summaries§ Instructs PS to checkpoint vars§ Performs PS health checks§ (Re-)Initialize variables at (re-)start of training
NODE AND PROCESS FAILURES§ Checkpoint to Persistent Storage (HDFS, S3)§ Use MonitoredTrainingSession and Hooks§ Use a Good Cluster Orchestrator (ie. Kubernetes, Mesos)§ Understand Failure Modes and Recovery States

"index": "0"}}'
ESTIMATOR + KERAS§ Distributed TensorFlow (Estimator) + Easy to Use (Keras)§ tf.keras.estimator.model_to_estimator()
# Instantiate a Keras inception v3 model.keras_inception_v3 = tf.keras.applications.inception_v3.InceptionV3(weights=None)# Compile model with the optimizer, loss, and metrics you'd like to train with.keras_inception_v3.compile(optimizer=tf.keras.optimizers.SGD(lr=0.0001, momentum=0.9),
loss='categorical_crossentropy',metric='accuracy')
# Create an Estimator from the compiled Keras model.est_inception_v3 = tf.keras.estimator.model_to_estimator(keras_model=keras_inception_v3)# Treat the derived Estimator as you would any other Estimator. For example,# the following derived Estimator calls the train method:est_inception_v3.train(input_fn=my_training_set, steps=2000)
“CANNED” ESTIMATORS
§ Commonly-Used Estimators§ Pre-Tested and Pre-Tuned§ DNNClassifer, TensorForestEstimator§ Always Use Canned Estimators If Possible§ Reduce Lines of Code, Complexity, and Bugs§ Use FeatureColumn to Define & Create Features
Custom vs. Canned

MULTI-HEADED INFERENCE
§ Inputs Pass Through Model One Time§ Model Returns Multiple Predictions:
1. Human-readable prediction (ie. “penguin”, “church”,…)2. Final layer of scores (float vector)
§ Final Layer of floats Pass to the Next Model in Ensemble§ Optimizes Bandwidth, CPU/GPU, Latency, Memory§ Enables Complex Model Composing and Ensembling
BUILD YOUR OWN MODEL SERVER§ Adapt GRPC(Google) <-> HTTP (REST of the World)§ Perform Batch Inference vs. Request/Response§ Handle Requests Asynchronously§ Support Mobile, Embedded Inference§ Customize Request Batching§ Add Circuit Breakers, Fallbacks§ Control Latency Requirements§ Reduce Number of Moving Parts

REQUEST BATCH TUNING§ max_batch_size
§ Enables throughput/latency tradeoff§ Bounded by RAM
§ batch_timeout_micros
§ Defines batch time window, latency upper-bound§ Bounded by RAM
§ num_batch_threads
§ Defines parallelism§ Bounded by CPU cores
§ max_enqueued_batches
§ Defines queue upper bound, throttling§ Bounded by RAM
Reaching either thresholdwill trigger a batch
ADVANCED BATCHING & SERVING TIPS§ Batch Just the GPU/TPU Portions of the Computation Graph
§ Batch Arbitrary Sub-Graphs using Batch / Unbatch Graph Ops§ Distribute Large Models Into Shards Across TensorFlow Model Servers§ Batch RNNs Used for Sequential and Time-Series Data§ Find Best Batching Strategy For Your Data Through Experimentation
§ BasicBatchScheduler: Homogeneous requests (ie Regress or Classify)§ SharedBatchScheduler: Mixed requests, multi-step, ensemble predict§ StreamingBatchScheduler: Mixed CPU/GPU/IO-bound Workloads
§ Serve Only One (1) Model Inside One (1) TensorFlow Serving Process§ Much Easier to Debug, Tune, Scale, and Manage Models in Production.
