NVIDIA GB200 NVL72 introduces a fundamentally new way to build GPU clusters by extending NVIDIA NVLink coherence across an entire rack. This design enables exascale performance, but it also changes the assumptions that many scheduling systems were built on. As a result, “rack-scale locality” becomes a hard constraint. When workloads cross domain boundaries, performance drops sharply…

Slurm is an open source cluster management and job scheduling system for Linux. It manages job scheduling for over 65% of TOP500 systems. Most organizations running large-scale AI training have years of investment in Slurm job scripts, fair-share policies, and accounting workflows. The challenge is getting Slurm scheduling capabilities onto Kubernetes—the standard platform for managing GPU…
