Bring Your Own (BYO) GPU Nodes

This guide walks you through deploying Kaito on a Kubernetes cluster with self-provisioned GPU nodes.

Prerequisites

If you are following the demo as is then you would need access to an Azure account.

Tools

Set up a Kubernetes cluster with GPU nodes

Note

If you already have a Kubernetes cluster, you can skip this section.

For the sake of this guide, we will create an Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS) cluster.

Environment variables

Make necessary changes to the following environment variables and copy paste them into your terminal:

export LOCATION="southcentralus"
export RESOURCE_GROUP="kaito-rg"
export AKS_RG="${RESOURCE_GROUP}-aks"
export CLUSTER_NAME="kaito"
export AKS_WORKER_USER_NAME="azuser"
export SSH_KEY=~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub
export GPU_NODE_SIZE="Standard_NC24ads_A100_v4"
export GPU_NODE_COUNT=1
export GPU_NODE_POOL_NAME="gpunodes"

Create a resource group

Run the following command to create a resource group:

az group create \
    --name "${RESOURCE_GROUP}" \
    --location "${LOCATION}"

Create an Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS) cluster

Run the following command to create an AKS cluster:

az aks create \
    --resource-group "${RESOURCE_GROUP}" \
    --node-resource-group "${AKS_RG}" \
    --name "${CLUSTER_NAME}" \
    --enable-oidc-issuer \
    --enable-workload-identity \
    --enable-managed-identity \
    --node-count 1 \
    --location "${LOCATION}" \
    --ssh-key-value "${SSH_KEY}" \
    --admin-username "${AKS_WORKER_USER_NAME}" \
    --os-sku Ubuntu

Add GPU nodes

Run the following commands to add or update the aks-preview extension:

Important

This is needed to enable the --skip-gpu-driver-install flag, you can read more about it here.

az extension add --name aks-preview
az extension update --name aks-preview

Run the following command to add GPU node to the AKS cluster:

az aks nodepool add \
    --name "${GPU_NODE_POOL_NAME}" \
    --resource-group "${RESOURCE_GROUP}" \
    --cluster-name "${CLUSTER_NAME}" \
    --node-count "${GPU_NODE_COUNT}" \
    --node-vm-size "${GPU_NODE_SIZE}" \
    --skip-gpu-driver-install

Download kubeconfig

Run the following command to download the kubeconfig file:

az aks get-credentials \
    --resource-group "${RESOURCE_GROUP}" \
    --name "${CLUSTER_NAME}"

Prepare the Kubernetes cluster for GPU workloads

Install the NVIDIA GPU operator

Note

If you have already set up your Kubernetes cluster with Nvidia's GPU operator, you can skip the GPU operator installation.

Run the following commands to create a namespace for the GPU operator:

kubectl create ns gpu-operator
kubectl label --overwrite ns gpu-operator pod-security.kubernetes.io/enforce=privileged

Run the following commands to install the GPU operator:

helm repo add nvidia https://helm.ngc.nvidia.com/nvidia
helm repo update

helm install \
    --wait \
    --generate-name \
    -n gpu-operator \
    --create-namespace \
    nvidia/gpu-operator

Ensure that the GPU operator is installed by running the following command:

kubectl -n gpu-operator wait pod \
    --for=condition=Ready \
    -l app.kubernetes.io/component=gpu-operator \
    --timeout=300s

Finally ensure that the nvidia runtime class is created by running the following command:

kubectl get runtimeclass nvidia

A typical output would look like this:

$ kubectl get runtimeclass nvidia
NAME     HANDLER   AGE
nvidia   nvidia    16m

Label the GPU nodes

We need to label the GPU nodes apps=gpu, so that the Kaito workspace controller can schedule the inference workloads on these nodes. If you are following along the guide, you can run the following command to label the GPU nodes:

kubectl get nodes \
    -l agentpool="${GPU_NODE_POOL_NAME}" \
    -o name | \
    xargs -I {} \
    kubectl label --overwrite {} apps=gpu

Tip

If you have used a different set up to create the GPU nodes, you can label the nodes manually by running the following command: kubectl label node <node-name> apps=gpu.

Install Kaito on the Kubernetes cluster

Run the following command to install Kaito:

helm install workspace \
    ./charts/kaito/workspace \
    --namespace kaito-workspace \
    --create-namespace

Ensure that kaito is installed by running the following command:

kubectl -n kaito-workspace wait pod \
    --for=condition=Ready \
    -l app.kubernetes.io/instance=workspace \
    --timeout=300s

Deploying a model

Deploy a workspace with a GPU model

To deploy a workspace with a GPU model, run the following command:

cat <<EOF | kubectl apply -f -
apiVersion: kaito.sh/v1alpha1
kind: Workspace
metadata:
  name: workspace-falcon-7b
resource:
  instanceType: "${GPU_NODE_SIZE}"
  labelSelector:
    matchLabels:
      apps: gpu
inference:
  preset:
    name: "falcon-7b"
EOF

Note

In the above configuration you can see we have use a node labelSelector value as apps: gpu, this is the same label we have applied when we added the GPU node pool earlier.

Ensure that the workspace is ready by running the following command:

kubectl get workspace workspace-falcon-7b

A typical output would look like this:

$ kubectl get workspace workspace-falcon-7b
NAME                  INSTANCE                   RESOURCEREADY   INFERENCEREADY   JOBSTARTED   WORKSPACESUCCEEDED   AGE
workspace-falcon-7b   Standard_NC24ads_A100_v4   True            True                          True                 16m

Use the workspace

Run the following command to find the cluster IP to send the request to:

export CLUSTERIP=$(kubectl get \
    svc workspace-falcon-7b \
    -o jsonpath="{.spec.clusterIPs[0]}")

Let's send a request to the workspace to get an inference response. Modify the prompt as you see fit:

export QUESTION="What's are LLMs?"

Run the following command to send the request:

kubectl run -it --rm \
    --restart=Never \
    curl --image=curlimages/curl \
    -- curl -X POST http://$CLUSTERIP/chat \
    -H "accept: application/json" \
    -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
    -d "{\"prompt\":\"${QUESTION}\"}" | jq
