ibmz-accelerated-for-snapml

Snap ML is a library that provides high-speed training and inference of popular machine learning models on modern computing systems.

On IBM® z16™ and later (running Linux on IBM Z or IBM® z/OS® Container Extensions (IBM zCX)), for certain models, Snap ML can leverage new inference acceleration capabilities that transparently target the IBM Integrated Accelerator for AI through the IBM z Deep Neural Network (zDNN) library. The IBM zDNN library contains a set of primitives that support Deep Neural Networks. These primitives transparently target the IBM Integrated Accelerator for AI on IBM z16™ and later. No changes to the original model are needed to take advantage of the new inference acceleration capabilities.
