SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill requires lambda-cloud-client>=1.0.0, and includes references (resource) and assets (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

Lambda Labs provides reserved, on-demand GPU instances that eliminate the hassle of provisioning GPU hardware when you need dedicated compute for ML training, fine-tuning, and inference workloads.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • GPU instance provisioning with SSH access: Launch single-GPU or multi-GPU machines in chosen regions with straightforward connectivity for experimentation and production runs.
  • Pre-installed ML software stack: Use a ready-to-run Lambda Stack including CUDA, cuDNN, NCCL, PyTorch, TensorFlow, and JupyterLab to reduce setup time.
  • Persistent storage and 1-Click clusters: Keep datasets, checkpoints, and outputs across restarts with filesystems, and scale to multi-node Slurm clusters for larger training jobs.

Quick Start

Launch a Lambda Labs GPU instance with SSH enabled, then connect to it via ssh ubuntu@<INSTANCE-IP> to start your training or inference workflow immediately.

FAQPage Schema
How do I launch on-demand GPU instances for ML training?

Pre-installed ML software stacks on GPU instances include CUDA, cuDNN, NCCL, PyTorch, TensorFlow, and JupyterLab, allowing you to start running workloads immediately without manual environment setup.

Can I run multi-node distributed training with persistent storage?

Yes, you can scale to multi-node Slurm clusters for distributed training, while persistent filesystems allow you to keep datasets and checkpoints across restarts for data reuse.

Does this GPU cloud environment support SSH-based access?

Yes, the GPU cloud environment supports SSH-based access. After launching an instance, you can connect directly via `ssh ubuntu@<INSTANCE-IP>` to manage your training or inference workflows.

What's the best way to keep ML checkpoints across instance restarts?

The best way to keep ML checkpoints across instance restarts is by attaching persistent filesystems. They ensure your datasets, checkpoints, and outputs remain available for reuse across sessions.

Do I need to manually install CUDA and PyTorch on these GPU instances?

No, you do not need to manually install CUDA and PyTorch. The instances feature a ready-to-run Lambda Stack with pre-installed ML software including CUDA, cuDNN, NCCL, PyTorch, and TensorFlow.
