As we continue to focus our AI research and development on solving increasingly complex problems, one of the most significant and challenging shifts we’ve experienced is the sheer scale of computation required to train large language models (LLMs). Traditionally, our AI model training has involved a training massive number of models that required a comparatively smaller number of GPUs.

Hadoop. The first time that I really became familiar with this term was at Hadoop World in New York City some ten or so years ago. There were thousands of attendees at the event – lining up for book signings and meetings with recruiters to fill the endless job openings for developers experienced with MapReduce and managing Big Data. This was the gold rush of the 21st century, except the gold was data.

Meta is currently operating many data centers with GPU training clusters across the world. Our data centers are the backbone of our operations, meticulously designed to support the scaling demands of compute and storage. A year ago, however, as the industry reached a critical inflection point due to the rise of artificial intelligence (AI), we recognized that to lead in the generative AI space we’d need to transform our fleet.

At Meta, Bento , our internal Jupyter notebooks platform, is a popular tool that allows our engineers to mix code, text, and multimedia in a single document. Use cases run the entire spectrum from what we call “lite” workloads that involve simple prototyping to heavier and more complex machine learning workflows. However, even though the lite workflows require limited compute, users still have to go through the same process of reserving and provisioning remote compute – a process that takes time

Web applications provide the best user experience when pages load quickly and display additional data as it becomes available. Developers typically use JavaScript to load data asynchronously, but this adds complexity when compared to server-side rendering. We review a technique that uses the Shadow DOM with HTTP streaming to load pages quickly and display data asynchronously without JavaScript.
