gpu: update k8s 'schedule GPUs' website page

Open grahamwhaley opened this issue 5 years ago • 3 comments

The k8s docs page https://kubernetes.io/docs/tasks/manage-gpus/scheduling-gpus/ details how to schedule GPUs. Presently there is no mention of Intel GPUs (but are mentions of other vendors).

At the appropriate time we should discuss/Issue/PR to get that page updated, which may mean either:

  • adding Intel GPUs to that page
  • or, if the trend is to remove vendor specific information from such pages, remove all vendor specifics.

The source of the page lives at: https://github.com/kubernetes/website/blob/master/content/en/docs/tasks/manage-gpus/scheduling-gpus.md

@uniemimu - What do you think?

Especially as Intel GPU plugin supports now (hanks to Ukri) fractional resources that the other plugins (according to the page) do not...

In fact other plugins do support fractional resources as well, albeit via forks. I wouldn't go as far as touting that feature, nor the monitoring resource which gives access to all GPUs, but it is easy to agree with Graham's assessment there. Either our plugin deserves to be listed and mentioned, or perhaps none do. I would be surprised if listing ours would be an issue.

I can try and write something, we'll see how that is received. But perhaps it is best to have an internal review round first, via a fork of that. After all, I'm not exactly a native English speaker.

Intel reference added to the site (https://kubernetes.io/docs/tasks/manage-gpus/scheduling-gpus/). Closing.
