<p>FYI, here is a thing that reading/ores people are daydreaming
about. I've made it clear that bare-metal-in-labs is a

GPU resource-contention would be handled.<br>

do you all think about
doing the GPU

first?

<div>I don't know if
it was halfak or
marktraceur who
suggested it first
(although Aaron's
brought it up a
couple times now),
but it's <i>probably</i>
less up front
architectural
overhead to start
out with, even if in
the future we'd have
a strict requirement
on HA (Q1 FY 18-19
at the very latest
under current
guess). As Aaron has
rightly noted doing
this in Labs also
lets us learn plus
give community
members greater
access to innovate
early, too. The
primary downside of
not getting this in
production with HA
up front is if
funding dries up for
FY 18-19 we're stuck
or pegged to certain
workflows later on.
But maybe it's not
worth worrying about
that too much.
<div><br>

<div>I think one
very much open
question, though,
would be if it's
possible to have a
machine with the
GPU card installed

assigned in Labs.
Does anyone know
if that's actually
possible?</div>

Last I heard,
Dario thought
we might be
able to cover
the cost with
Research
budget. Otto
thought that
we could get a
top of line
GPU and load
it into an
analytics
machine some
time in Q4 of
this year.
Ellery was
planning to
use 3rd party
GPU processing
services until
it was ready.
