Runtimes

Pre-built training environments — framework + image + parallelism strategy.

A runtime is a pre-built training environment: framework + base image + parallelism strategy. Vantage ships several cluster-wide runtimes; admins can publish workspace-scoped ones too.

Runtime	Framework	Use it for
torch-distributed	PyTorch + torchrun	General-purpose multi-GPU PyTorch training.
deepspeed-zero3	DeepSpeed	Memory-bound LLMs that need ZeRO-3 sharding.
mlx-distributed	MLX	Apple-silicon training (where available).
huggingface-trainer	Transformers	Standard HF Trainer with sensible defaults.
