OpenPAI is an open-source AI platform from Microsoft that provides resource scheduling and cluster management for machine learning workloads on GPU clusters, built on Kubernetes. It offers a web portal, job submission SDK, and VS Code integration for training models with frameworks like TensorFlow and PyTorch.

Use cases

  • manage a shared GPU cluster for deep learning teams
  • schedule TensorFlow and PyTorch training jobs on Kubernetes
  • allocate GPU resources fairly across AI researchers
  • run Jupyter notebooks on a dedicated AI cluster
  • set up an on-premise AI training platform
  • queue and monitor distributed model training jobs

When to choose

  • you need a full-featured, self-hosted GPU cluster manager for AI training
  • your team shares limited GPU hardware and needs job scheduling and quotas
  • you want a web portal and SDK on top of Kubernetes for ML workloads

When to avoid

  • you need active development or new features - the repo is read-only since v1.8.1 (Dec 2021)
  • you prefer a modern alternative like Kubeflow, Ray, or Volcano
  • you only need single-machine training without cluster scheduling
