<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 nonstarter; having special

about how GPU resource-contention would be handled.<br>

<div>I don't

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>I think
one very much
open question,
though, would

anyone know if
that's

we'll need a

Last I heard,
Dario thought
we might be

the cost with
Research
budget. Otto
thought that
we could get a
top of line
GPU and load
it into an

machine some
time in Q4 of

Ellery was

use 3rd party

services until
it was ready.
