Slurm®-based Clusters
Deploy large-scale, customizable training environments with Nebius AI Slurm®* solution, featuring the NVIDIA stack, high-performance shared storage and advanced Slurm scheduling.
Ready-to-use cluster configuration
Quickly deploy a fully prepared cluster with preconfigured NVIDIA CUDA, NCCL, and InfiniBand drivers and libraries. With essential Slurm configurations in place, you can immediately start your high-scale training.
Best training experience
If a specific GPU or entire host has issues or underperforms, the Nebius-developed operator mitigates it by providing notifications or recreating the resource.
High-performance shared storage
Shared storage, powered by Nebius AI Shared Filesystem, delivers up to 30 GB/s performance for checkpoints and dataset processing.
Adjustable configuration
Easily adjust the number of nodes and type of GPUs, and scale your computational resources seamlessly at the start or anytime after deployment.
Easy environment management
Users and system packages are synchronized across nodes, simplifying maintenance tasks.
Advanced job scheduling
Utilize Slurm for sophisticated job scheduling to optimize resource usage, enhance throughput and minimize job turnaround time.
