<h1>Use different clusters<a class="headerlink" href="#use-different-clusters" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h1>
<p>PaddlePaddle supports running jobs on several platforms including:
- <a class="reference external" href="http://kubernetes.io">Kubernetes</a> open-source system for automating deployment, scaling, and management of containerized applications from Google.
- <a class="reference external" href="https://www.open-mpi.org">OpenMPI</a> Mature high performance parallel computing framework.
- <a class="reference external" href="http://www.fabfile.org">Fabric</a> A cluster management tool. Write scripts to submit jobs or manage the cluster.</p>
<p>We&#8217;ll introduce cluster job management on these platforms. The examples can be found under <a class="reference external" href="https://github.com/PaddlePaddle/Paddle/tree/develop/paddle/scripts/cluster_train_v2">cluster_train_v2</a> .</p>
<p>These cluster platforms provide API or environment variables for training processes, when the job is dispatched to different nodes. Like node ID, IP or total number of nodes etc.</p>
