DeepSpeed is an open-source library that facilitates the training of large deep learning models based on PyTorch. With minimal code changes, a developer can train a model on a single GPU machine, a single machine with multiple GPUs, or on multiple machines in a distributed fashion. In this post, we review DeepSpeed and explain how to get started.
