FSDP enables training of very large models by sharding parameters, gradients, and optimizer state across GPUs, reducing per-GPU memory and enabling models that don't fit on a single device.
Configure a multi-GPU training run using FSDP and launch it with torchrun or Accelerate.

PyTorch FSDP enables training large transformer models by sharding parameters, gradients, and optimizer state across GPUs, reducing per-GPU memory for models that exceed single-device capacity.
FULL_SHARD shards parameters, gradients, and optimizer state across GPUs for maximum memory savings, while SHARD_GRAD_OP only shards gradients and optimizer state, trading higher memory usage for reduced communication overhead.
Yes, FSDP integrates directly with HuggingFace Trainer and Accelerate to streamline multi-GPU and multi-node distributed training workflows, simplifying configuration and launch processes for large-scale models.
Yes, FSDP supports mixed precision training and activation checkpointing to maximize memory savings and performance, alongside optional CPU offload to further reduce GPU memory constraints during large-scale training.
FSDP provides practical guidance for saving and loading distributed checkpoints, ensuring model state is correctly persisted and restored across sharded multi-GPU and multi-node training scenarios without data loss.
Use CPU offload with FSDP when GPU memory is insufficient for large model training, as it offloads parameters to CPU memory to enable training of larger models at the cost of increased data transfer overhead.
