NVIDIA Nsight Systems CLI Docker Container

NVIDIA Nsight Systems is a system-wide performance analysis tool designed to visualize an application’s algorithms, identify the largest opportunities to optimize, and tune to scale efficiently across any quantity or size of CPUs and GPUs, from large servers to our smallest system on a chip (SoC).

The NVIDIA Nsight Systems CLI Docker Container is designed to provide users with a seamless environment to run NVIDIA Nsight Systems.

Features

  • Profiling a Kubernetes cluster using NVIDIA DevTools Sidecar Injector for injection.
  • Using as a base container for profiling applications in an isolated environment.
  • Running “nsys stats”/“nsys recipe” on the command line for post-processing and analyzing collected reports across all systems, including MacOS.
