Torch Neuron
The PyTorch component of the Amazon AWS Neuron SDK, providing a compilation and runtime framework for the Trainium and Inferentia families of AI chips. It implements PyTorch device abstraction interfaces to achieve seamless compatibility with the native PyTorch toolchain.
Timeline (last 90 days)
With Torch Neuron, Trainium is now a standard PyTorch device.
Torch Neuron is the PyTorch component of the AWS Neuron SDK and is the compilation and runtime framework Amazon provides for its in-house AI chips (the Trainium and Inferentia series).
By implementing PyTorch's device abstraction interface, Torch Neuron exposes Trainium as a standard device, allowing users to migrate models and tensors to the xla or neuron device and reuse native tools such as torch.profiler and torch.compile.
Under the hood, Torch Neuron uses the XLA compiler to transform PyTorch computation graphs into instructions adapted for Trainium's neural network compute cores (NeuronCore).
