THE AI ANGLE
Driving distributed training and inference workloads across GPU clusters

Netflix built a Kubernetes platform that monitors GPU health, automates machine repairs, and recovers training jobs from checkpoints. The system isolates faulty components and slow workers to keep large models running. Platform teams must manage hardware defects at the software layer to prevent distributed jobs from stalling.
