引言

随着人工智能技术的快速发展,越来越多的企业开始将AI应用部署到Kubernetes平台上。然而,传统的Kubernetes调度器在处理AI工作负载时面临诸多挑战,如资源需求波动大、训练任务排队管理复杂、GPU资源利用率不高等问题。为了解决这些挑战,Kubernetes生态中涌现出了一批专门针对AI工作负载的调度和管理工具,其中Kueue和Kubeflow的集成方案成为了业界关注的焦点。

Kueue作为Kubernetes原生的作业队列管理器,专门设计用于处理批处理工作负载,特别是AI/ML训练任务。而Kubeflow作为Kubernetes上的机器学习平台,提供了完整的ML工作流管理能力。两者的结合为AI应用的部署和调度提供了强大的解决方案。

Kubernetes AI部署面临的挑战

资源调度复杂性

AI工作负载通常具有以下特点:

  • 资源需求波动大:训练任务可能需要大量GPU资源,而推理服务则相对稳定
  • 任务类型多样:包括数据预处理、模型训练、模型评估、批量推理等
  • 资源竞争激烈:多个团队或项目可能同时竞争有限的GPU资源

传统调度器的局限性

Kubernetes默认调度器在处理AI工作负载时存在以下问题:

  • 缺乏队列管理机制,无法有效处理任务排队
  • 对资源预留和配额管理支持有限
  • 无法根据AI任务的特点进行智能调度优化

Kueue简介与核心概念

什么是Kueue

Kueue是一个Kubernetes原生的作业队列管理器,专门为批处理工作负载设计。它提供了以下核心功能:

  • 作业队列管理
  • 资源配额和预留
  • 作业优先级调度
  • 自动扩缩容支持

核心概念

ClusterQueue

ClusterQueue定义了集群中可用的资源池,包括CPU、内存、GPU等资源的总量和配额。

apiVersion: kueue.x-k8s.io/v1beta1
kind: ClusterQueue
metadata:
  name: cluster-queue-gpu
spec:
  namespaceSelector: {} # 匹配所有namespace
  resourceGroups:
  - coveredResources: ["cpu", "memory", "nvidia.com/gpu"]
    flavors:
    - name: "default-flavor"
      resources:
      - name: "cpu"
        nominalQuota: 90
      - name: "memory"
        nominalQuota: 360Gi
      - name: "nvidia.com/gpu"
        nominalQuota: 8

LocalQueue

LocalQueue是namespace级别的队列,用于将作业提交到ClusterQueue。

apiVersion: kueue.x-k8s.io/v1beta1
kind: LocalQueue
metadata:
  namespace: team-a
  name: local-queue-a
spec:
  clusterQueue: cluster-queue-gpu

Workload

Workload代表一个需要调度的作业,可以是Job、MPIJob、PyTorchJob等。

Kubeflow概述

Kubeflow架构

Kubeflow是Kubernetes上的机器学习平台,主要组件包括:

  • Kubeflow Pipelines: ML工作流编排
  • KFServing/KServe: 模型服务
  • Training Operators: 各种ML框架的训练任务管理器
  • Katib: 超参数调优
  • Central Dashboard: 统一管理界面

Training Operators

Kubeflow提供了多种训练任务的CRD:

  • TFJob: TensorFlow训练任务
  • PyTorchJob: PyTorch训练任务
  • MPIJob: MPI分布式训练任务
  • XGBoostJob: XGBoost训练任务

Kueue与Kubeflow集成方案

集成架构

Kueue与Kubeflow的集成主要通过以下方式实现:

  1. Kueue作为底层调度器,管理所有批处理作业的队列
  2. Kubeflow Training Operators创建的训练任务通过Kueue进行调度
  3. 作业的状态和生命周期由Kueue统一管理
