The following section lists the requirements for training DLRM.

Requirements

This repository contains Dockerfile which extends the PyTorch NGC container and encapsulates some dependencies. Aside from these dependencies, ensure you have the following components:

• NVIDIA Docker
• PyTorch 21.10-py3 NGC container
• Supported GPUs:
  • NVIDIA Volta architecture
  • NVIDIA Turing architecture
  • NVIDIA Ampere architecture

For more information about how to get started with NGC containers, see the following sections from the NVIDIA GPU Cloud Documentation and the Deep Learning Documentation:

• Getting Started Using NVIDIA GPU Cloud
• Accessing And Pulling From The NGC Container Registry
• Running PyTorch

For those unable to use the PyTorch NGC container, to set up the required environment or create your own container, see the versioned NVIDIA Container Support Matrix.
