###Setup PaddlePaddle Environment on AWS
For the design of running PaddlePaddle on Kubernetes, you really need to read [this article](https://github.com/drinktee/Paddle/blob/k8s/doc_cn/cluster/k8s/distributed_training_on_kubernetes.md) first.
Now, we've created a cluster with following network capability:
1. All Kubernetes nodes can communicate with each other.
1. All Docker containers on Kubernetes nodes can communicate with each other.
1. All Kubernetes nodes can communicate with all Docker containers on Kubernetes nodes.
1. All other traffic loads from outside of Kubernetes nodes cannot reach to the Docker containers on Kubernetes nodes except for creating the services for containers.
For sharing the training data across all the Kubernetes nodes, we use EFS (Elastic File System) in AWS. Ceph might be a better solution, but it requires high version of Linux kernel that might not be stable enough at this moment. We haven't automated the EFS setup at this moment, so please do the following steps:

1. Follow the EC2 mount instruction to mount the disk onto all the Kubernetes nodes, we recommend to mount EFS disk onto ~/efs.
![efs_mount](efs_mount.png =800x)
Before starting the training, you should place your user config and divided training data onto EFS. When the training start, each task will copy related files from EFS into container, and it will also write the training results back onto EFS, we will show you how to place the data later in this article.
###Core Concept of PaddlePaddle Training on AWS
Now we've already setup a 3 node distributed training cluster, and on each node we've attached the EFS volume, in this training demo, we will create three Kubernetes pod and scheduling them on 3 node. Each pod contains a PaddlePaddle container. When container gets created, it will start pserver and trainer process, load the training data from EFS volume and start the distributed training task.
####Use Kubernetes Job
We use Kubernetes job to represent one time of distributed training. After the job get finished, Kubernetes will destroy job container and release all related resources.
3. Modify the Kubernetes security group, add additional inbound policy "All TCP TCP 0 - 65535 0.0.0.0/0" for Kubernetes default VPC security group.
We can write a yaml file to describe the Kubernetes job. The file contains lots of configuration information, for example PaddlePaddle's node number, `paddle pserver` open port number, the network card info etc., these information are passed into container for processes to use as environment variables.
4. Follow the EC2 mount instruction to mount the disk onto all the Kubernetes nodes, we recommend to mount EFS disk onto ~/efs.
In one time of distributed training, user will confirm the PaddlePaddle node number first. And then upload the pre-divided training data and configuration file onth EFS volume. And then create the Kubernetes job yaml file; submit to the Kubernetes cluster to start the training job.
####Create PaddlePaddle Node
After Kubernetes master gets the request, it will parse the yaml file and create several pods (PaddlePaddle's node number), Kubernetes will allocate these pods onto cluster's node. A pod represents a PaddlePaddle node, when pod is successfully allocated onto one physical/virtual machine, Kubernetes will startup the container in the pod, and this container will use the environment variables in yaml file and start up `paddle pserver` and `paddle trainer` processes.
####Start up Training
After container gets started, it starts up the distributed training by using scripts. We know `paddle train` process need to know other node's ip address and it's own trainer_id, since PaddlePaddle currently don't have the ability to do the service discovery, so in the start up script, each node will use job pod's name to query all to pod info from Kubernetes apiserver (apiserver's endpoint is an environment variable in container by default).
With pod information, we can assign each pod a unique trainer_id. Here we sort all the pods by pod's ip, and assign the index to each PaddlePaddle node as it's trainer_id. The workflow of starting up the script is as follows:
1. Query the api server to get pod information, and assign the trainer_id by sorting the ip.
1. Copy the training data from EFS sharing volume into container.
1. Parse the `paddle pserver` and 'paddle trainer' startup parameters from environment variables, and then start up the processes.
1. PaddlePaddle will automatically write the result onto the PaddlePaddle node with trainer_id:0, we set the output path to be the EFS volume to save the result data.
And now you can place your training data onto the EFS, you should follow [this article](https://github.com/drinktee/Paddle/blob/k8s/doc_cn/cluster/k8s/distributed_training_on_kubernetes.md) to locate your data.
###Start PaddlePaddle Training Demo on AWS
After setting up all the steps on AWS, We can start up our PaddlePaddle training recommendation demo by using:
Now we'll start a PaddlePaddle training demo on AWS, steps are as follows:
1. Build PaddlePaddle Docker image.
1. Divide the training data file and upload it onto the EFS sharing volume.
1. Create the training job yaml file, and start up the job.
1. Check the result after training.
####Build PaddlePaddle Docker Image
PaddlePaddle docker image need to provide the runtime environment for `paddle pserver` and `paddle train`, so the container use this image should have two main function:
1. Copy the training data into container.
1. Generate the startup parameter for `paddle pserver` and `paddle train` process, and startup the training.
Since official `paddledev/paddle:cpu-latest` have already included the PaddlePaddle binary, but lack of the above functionalities, so we will create the startup script based on this image, to achieve the work above. the detailed Dockerfile is as follows:
```
kubectl create -f job.yaml
FROM paddledev/paddle:cpu-latest
MAINTAINER zjsxzong89@gmail.com
COPY start.sh /root/
COPY start_paddle.py /root/
CMD ["bash"," -c","/root/start.sh"]
```
At this point, we will copy our `start.sh` and `start_paddle.py` file into container, and then exec `start_paddle.py` script to start up the training, all the steps like assigning trainer_id, getting other nodes' ip are implemented in `start_paddle.py`.
`start_paddle.py` will start parsing the parameters.
```
parser = argparse.ArgumentParser(prog="start_paddle.py",
description='simple tool for k8s')
args, train_args_list = parser.parse_known_args()
train_args = refine_unknown_args(train_args_list)
train_args_dict = dict(zip(train_args[:-1:2], train_args[1::2]))
podlist = getPodList()
```
And then using function `getPodList()` to query all the pod information from the job name through Kubernetes api server. When all the pods are in the running status, using `getIdMap(podlist)` to get the trainer_id.
```
podlist = getPodList()
# need to wait until all pods are running
while not isPodAllRunning(podlist):
time.sleep(10)
podlist = getPodList()
idMap = getIdMap(podlist)
```
In function `getIdMap(podlist)`, we use podlist to get the ip address for each pod and sort them, use the index as the trainer_id.
```
def getIdMap(podlist):
'''
generate tainer_id by ip
'''
ips = []
for pod in podlist["items"]:
ips.append(pod["status"]["podIP"])
ips.sort()
idMap = {}
for i in range(len(ips)):
idMap[ips[i]] = i
return idMap
```
After getting `idMap`, we use function `startPaddle(idMap, train_args_dict)` to generate `paddle pserver` and `paddle train` start up parameters and then start up the processes.
In function `startPaddle`, the most important work is to generate `paddle pserver` and `paddle train` start up parameters. For example, `paddle train` parameter parsing, we will get parameters like `PADDLE_NIC`, `PADDLE_PORT`, `PADDLE_PORTS_NUM`, and get the `trainer_id` from `idMap`.
```

Use `docker build` to build toe Docker Image:
```
docker build -t your_repo/paddle:mypaddle .
```
And then push the built image onto docker registry.
```
docker push your_repo/paddle:mypaddle
```
####Upload Training Data File
Here we will use PaddlePaddle's official recommendation demo as the content for this training, we put the training data file into a directory named by job name, which located in EFS sharing volume, the tree structure for the directory looks like:
```
efs
└── paddle-cluster-job
├── data
│ ├── 0
│ │
│ ├── 1
│ │
│ └── 2
├── output
└── recommendation
```
The `paddle-cluster-job` directory is the job name for this training, this training includes 3 PaddlePaddle node, we store the pre-divided data under `paddle-cluster-job/data` directory, directory 0, 1, 2 each represent 3 nodes' trainer_id. the training data in in recommendation directory, the training results and logs will be in the output directory.
####Create Kubernetes Job
Kubernetes use yaml file to describe job details, and then use command line tool to create the job in Kubernetes cluster.
In yaml file, we describe the Docker image we use for this training, the node number we need to startup, the volume mounting information and all the necessary parameters we need for `paddle pserver` and `paddle train` processes.
The yaml file content is as follows:
```
......@@ -297,14 +473,93 @@ spec:
restartPolicy: Never
```
It will generate three PaddlePaddle job runing on distributed Kubernetes nodes, and all the training result will be written into EFS.
We've made an experiment of running this PaddlePaddle recommendation training demo on three 2 core 8 GB machine (m3.large), and it took 8 hours to generate 10 models.
In yaml file, the metadata's name is the job's name. `parallelism, completions` means this job will simultaneously start up 3 PaddlePaddle nodes, and this job will be finished when there are 3 finished pods. For the data store volume, we declare the path jobpath, it mount the /home/admin/efs on host machine into the container with path /home/jobpath. So in container, the /home/jobpath actually stores the data onto EFS sharing volume.
`env` field represents container's environment variables, we pass the PaddlePaddle parameters into containers by using the `env` field.
`JOB_PATH` represents the sharing volume path, `JOB_NAME` represents job name, `TRAIN_CONFIG_DIR` represents the training data file directory, we can these three parameters to get the file path for this training.
`CONF_PADDLE_NIC` represents `paddle pserver` process's `--nics` parameters, the NIC name.
`CONF_PADDLE_PORT` represents `paddle pserver` process's `--port` parameters, `CONF_PADDLE_PORTS_NUM` represents `--port_num` parameter.
`CONF_PADDLE_PORTS_NUM_SPARSE` represents the sparse updated port number, `--ports_num_for_sparse` parameter.
`CONF_PADDLE_GRADIENT_NUM` represents the training node number, `--num_gradient_servers` parameter.
After we create the yaml file, we can use Kubernetes command line tool to create the job onto the cluster.
```
kubectl create -f job.yaml
```
After we execute the above command, Kubernetes will create 3 pods and then pull the PaddlePaddle image, then start up the containers for training.
####Check Training Results
During the training, we can see the logs and models on EFS sharing volume, the output directory contains the training results. (Caution: node_0, node_1, node_2 directories represents PaddlePaddle node and train_id, not the Kubernetes node)
```
[root@paddle-kubernetes-node0 output]# tree -d
.
├── node_0
│ ├── server.log
│ └── train.log
├── node_1
│ ├── server.log
│ └── train.log
├── node_2
......
├── pass-00002
│ ├── done
│ ├── ___embedding_0__.w0
│ ├── ___embedding_1__.w0
......
```
We can always check the container training status through logs, for example:
```
[root@paddle-kubernetes-node0 node_0]# cat train.log
