Journey to optimize large scale transformer model inference with ONNX Runtime
With its resource-efficient and high-performance nature, ONNX Runtime helped us meet the need of deploying a large-scale multi-layer generative transformer model for code, a.k.a., GPT-C, to empower IntelliCode with the whole line of code completion suggestions in Visual Studio and Visual Studio Code.
How to migrate and modernize Linux workloads and open source databases to Azure
With extensive support for all major Linux distributions including Red Hat, SUSE, Ubuntu, CentOS, Debian, and managed platform-as-a-service (PaaS) offerings for open source databases like Azure Database for MySQL, Azure Database for PostgreSQL, and Azure Database for MariaDB—it’s no surprise that Linux is the fastest growing platform on Azure.
Empowering you to achieve more with open source on Azure
At Microsoft, we are taking cloud architecture to the next level and our open cloud reduces the friction for developers to get applications up and running. We give autonomy and control to the developers to flexibly choose their infrastructure and give them options to build, migrate, and deploy across multiple environments on-premises, in the cloud, or at the edge. Our philosophy is to give developers the best technology as quickly as possible.
ONNX Runtime 1.8: mobile, web, and accelerated training
The V1.8 release of ONNX Runtime includes many exciting new features. This release launches ONNX Runtime machine learning model inferencing acceleration for Android and iOS mobile ecosystems (previously in preview) and introduces ONNX Runtime Web. Additionally, the release also debuts official packages for accelerating model training workloads in PyTorch.
Enabling Local Tunnel Debugging with the Kubernetes extension for VS Code
In partnership with developers from Red Hat, we are announcing the introduction of Local Tunnel Debugging for Kubernetes service in the Kubernetes extension for Visual Studio Code, which enables you to use your native development tools against any cluster, live.
Delivering reliable production experiences with PyTorch Enterprise on Microsoft Azure
At Microsoft, we use PyTorch to power products such as Bing and Azure Cognitive Services and we actively contribute to several PyTorch open-source projects, including PyTorch Profiler, ONNX Runtime, DeepSpeed, and more. Today, we’re announcing a new initiative in collaboration with Facebook—the PyTorch Enterprise Support Program. This new program enables service providers to develop and offer tailored enterprise-grade support to their customers.
Making eBPF work on Windows
eBPF is a well-known but revolutionary technology—providing programmability, extensibility, and agility. eBPF has been applied to use cases such as denial-of-service protection and observability. Over time, a significant ecosystem of tools, products, and experience has been built up around eBPF.
