Accelerators

Accelerators connect a Lightning Trainer to arbitrary accelerators (CPUs, GPUs, TPUs, etc). Accelerators also manage distributed accelerators (like DP, DDP, HPC cluster).

Accelerators can also be configured to run on arbitrary clusters using Plugins or to link up to arbitrary computational strategies like 16-bit precision via AMP and Apex.
