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