Horovod
Horovod was originally developed by Uber to make distributed deep learning fast and easy to use, bringing model training time down from days and weeks to hours and minutes. With Horovod, an existing training script can be scaled up to run on hundreds of GPUs in just a few lines of Python code. Horovod can be installed on-premise or run out-of-the-box in cloud platforms, including AWS, Azure, and Databricks. Horovod can additionally run on top of Apache Spark, making it possible to unify data processing and model training into a single pipeline. Once Horovod has been configured, the same infrastructure can be used to train models with any framework, making it easy to switch between TensorFlow, PyTorch, MXNet, and future frameworks as machine learning tech stacks continue to evolve.

AWS Deep Learning AMIs
AWS Deep Learning AMIs (DLAMI) provides ML practitioners and researchers with a curated and secure set of frameworks, dependencies, and tools to accelerate deep learning in the cloud. Built for Amazon Linux and Ubuntu, Amazon Machine Images (AMIs) come preconfigured with TensorFlow, PyTorch, Apache MXNet, Chainer, Microsoft Cognitive Toolkit (CNTK), Gluon, Horovod, and Keras, allowing you to quickly deploy and run these frameworks and tools at scale. Develop advanced ML models at scale to develop autonomous vehicle (AV) technology safely by validating models with millions of supported virtual tests. Accelerate the installation and configuration of AWS instances, and speed up experimentation and evaluation with up-to-date frameworks and libraries, including Hugging Face Transformers. Use advanced analytics, ML, and deep learning capabilities to identify trends and make predictions from raw, disparate health data.

Apache NuttX
NuttX is a real-time operating system (RTOS) with an emphasis on standards compliance and small footprint. Scalable from 8-bit to 32-bit microcontroller environments, the primary governing standards in NuttX are Posix and ANSI standards. Additional standard APIs from Unix and other common RTOS’s (such as VxWorks) are adopted for functionality not available under these standards, or for functionality that is not appropriate for deeply-embedded environments (such as fork()). Apache NuttX is an effort undergoing Incubation at The Apache Software Foundation (ASF), sponsored by the Incubator. Incubation is required of all newly accepted projects until a further review indicates that the infrastructure, communications, and decision making process have stabilized in a manner consistent with other successful ASF projects.

Deeplearning4j
DL4J takes advantage of the latest distributed computing frameworks including Apache Spark and Hadoop to accelerate training. On multi-GPUs, it is equal to Caffe in performance. The libraries are completely open-source, Apache 2.0, and maintained by the developer community and Konduit team. Deeplearning4j is written in Java and is compatible with any JVM language, such as Scala, Clojure, or Kotlin. The underlying computations are written in C, C++, and Cuda. Keras will serve as the Python API. Eclipse Deeplearning4j is the first commercial-grade, open-source, distributed deep-learning library written for Java and Scala. Integrated with Hadoop and Apache Spark, DL4J brings AI to business environments for use on distributed GPUs and CPUs. There are a lot of parameters to adjust when you're training a deep-learning network. We've done our best to explain them, so that Deeplearning4j can serve as a DIY tool for Java, Scala, Clojure, and Kotlin programmers.
