SuperBench is a validation and profiling tool for AI infrastructure, which supports:
- AI infrastructure validation and diagnosis
- Distributed validation tools to validate hundreds or thousands of servers automatically
- Consider both raw hardware and E2E model performance with ML workload patterns
- Build a contract to identify hardware issues
- Provide infrastructural-oriented criteria as Performance/Quality Gates for hardware and system release
- Provide detailed performance report and advanced analysis tool
- AI workload benchmarking and profiling
- Provide comprehensive performance comparison between different existing hardware
- Provide insights for hardware and software co-design
It includes micro-benchmark for primitive computation and communication benchmarking, and model-benchmark to measure domain-aware end-to-end deep learning workloads.
🔴 Note: SuperBench is in the early pre-alpha stage for open source, and not ready for general public yet. If you want to jump in early, you can try building latest code yourself.
