Add GPU support for Machine learning

Various machine learning backends benefit greatly by running with GPU support. We can already run Keras with a TensorFlow backend on DSx but it's CPU only which makes it unusably slow for many situations. It would be great to allow DSx to take adv...

Allow custom hardware specifications for Online Deployments such as for a Shiny app

We have users that have a need for different hardware configurations when deploying a RShiny application in their deployment space. They need high amount of memory but only need 2 cpu. We dont want them to deploy the application with a high amount...

Allow for project variables which can be used (among other things) for security.

Security flaw to allow login data in a notebook. i.e. wml_credentials={ "url": wml_service_credentials_url, "username": wml_service_credentials_username, "password": wml_service_credentials_password } We should allow for project variables ...

Support needed to deploy Shiny apps using a custom image

Some packages in R require additional dependencies to install and load the library. For example: odbc driver for RODBC, or GAL/GEOS/PROJ C++ dependencies for many popular geospatial libraries (sf, rgdal, tmaptools etc.). These dependencies can be ...

Alerting possibilities for jobs

As an CP4D administrator I need to be alerted if jobs are not starting and remain in pending state. Example for alerts are: · Jobs that are already since x minutes in pending · X% of the jobs are in pending state · Pods in status “CrashLoopBackup”...

Configurable resource requirement of PMML deployment

Since many customers may have a separate data science team for the model building work, while the deployment work will be done by the system/platform admin team. Therefore it would be better for the system admin team to control the resource requir...

Allow package extensions to be added via UI

Often clients develop their own python packaes & libraries Not every client has a binary repository manager such as artifactory Clients can add their own libraries in WML using package extensions Currently those can only be created using the w...

Add "queued" status

When collecting information about current train runs, it happens that tasks are "running" but actually are still waiting for a GPU (see Support Ticket CS2171712). It is hard for a developer to know at which state the task actually is (running or w...

virtual deployment

A large CPD customer from Taiwan have about 2000 GPU nodes using Slurm to running Kubernetes for AI jobs now, They plan to build CP4D on another stand alone cluster. They want CP4D utilize the GPU cluster but no need brake out existing mechanism.
