“turns a 60 hour training run into a few hours”
At LayerJot, I’ve been training computer vision models for years, focusing on state of the art object detectors.
Strong Compute have taken pre-optimized reference libraries and sped them up 20x. This turns a 60 hour training run into a few hours.
Our highest value engineers are working on deep learning, and this makes them vastly more productive.
I've been a VP of Engineering at five companies, including Atlassian and Mulesoft, where I was responsible for large engineering teams. The potential to speed up developer workflows here is enormous, so much so that in addition to being a customer, I've now invested as well.
The future of the cloud needs to be about speed, ease of use and clear billing. Strong Compute is building this and I'm glad to be a customer and a backer.
