引言
随着人工智能技术的快速发展，基于Kubernetes的云原生AI应用部署已成为现代AI工程化的重要趋势。传统的AI开发和部署模式已经无法满足大规模、高并发、可扩展的业务需求。Kubernetes作为容器编排的行业标准，为AI应用提供了强大的基础设施支持，而Kubeflow作为专门针对机器学习工作流的开源平台，更是将AI部署推向了新的高度。
本文将深入探讨在Kubernetes平台上部署AI应用的最佳实践，重点介绍Kubeflow框架的核心功能、GPU资源调度优化策略，以及模型训练与推理服务的容器化部署方案。通过实际代码示例和详细的技术分析，为读者提供一套完整的AI工程化解决方案。
Kubernetes平台下的AI部署挑战
传统AI部署模式的局限性
在传统的AI开发环境中，研究人员通常使用本地环境或虚拟机进行模型训练，这种方式存在诸多问题：
- 环境不一致性：本地环境与生产环境差异导致"在我机器上能跑"的问题
- 资源利用率低：单台设备资源无法充分利用
- 扩展性差：难以应对大规模训练需求
- 运维复杂：缺乏统一的管理和监控机制
Kubernetes在AI部署中的优势
Kubernetes为AI应用提供了以下核心优势：
- 资源调度优化：通过Pod、Deployment等资源对象实现精准的资源分配
- 弹性伸缩：根据负载自动调整计算资源
- 服务发现与负载均衡：简化模型推理服务的访问
- 持久化存储支持：为训练数据和模型提供可靠的存储方案
- 多租户支持：实现不同团队间的资源隔离
