At the Baidu Cloud Intelligence Conference, the editor of Downcodes learned that Baidu released a major upgrade of Baige Computing Platform 4.0. The platform has made breakthrough progress in multi-core hybrid training and multi-core adaptation, achieving more than 99.5% effective training time on the Wanka cluster, greatly improving computing power utilization efficiency and reducing enterprise operating costs. Especially in the context of the current shortage of computing resources, the upgrade of Baige 4.0 is particularly important. It will effectively solve the many challenges faced by enterprises in high-performance computing.
Shen Dou, executive vice president of Baidu Group, announced the upgrade of Baidu Baige Computing Platform 4.0 at the 2024 Baidu Cloud Intelligence Conference held today. This new version supports multi-core hybrid training and multi-core adaptation, and has achieved more than 99.5% effective training time on the Wanka cluster, significantly improving the efficiency of computing power usage.
In the context of the current shortage of computing power, the upgrade to Baige 4.0 will help enterprises use computing resources more effectively and reduce operating costs. The focus of the upgrade is to improve the "multi-core hybrid training" capability, achieving 95% training efficiency on a Wanka-scale cluster, reaching the industry-leading level.
In addition, Baige 4.0 also achieves second-level deployment, shortening the operation preparation time of Wanka cluster from several weeks to only one hour, greatly improving the deployment efficiency and shortening the business online cycle. In response to frequent faults during large model training, Baige 4.0 has upgraded fault detection methods and automatic fault tolerance mechanisms, which effectively reduces the frequency of faults, reduces fault handling time, and ensures more than 99.5% of effective training time.
In terms of model reasoning, Baige 4.0 has been optimized in terms of speed and cost. Especially in long text reasoning, the efficiency has more than doubled, meeting the growing market demand.
The upgrade of Baige 4.0 demonstrates Baidu's continuous innovation in the field of high-performance computing and its deep understanding of user needs. It provides enterprises with a more powerful, reliable, and efficient AI infrastructure. It is believed that it will further promote the prosperity of the AI industry in the future. develop.
