About Volcano

Volcano is system for running high-performance workloads on Kubernetes. It features powerful batch scheduling capability that Kubernetes cannot provide but is commonly required by many classes of high-performance workloads, including:

· Machine learning/Deep learning

· Bioinformatics/Genomics

· Other big data applications

These types of applications typically run on generalized domain frameworks like TensorFlow, Spark, PyTorch, and MPI. Volcano is integrated with these frameworks to allow you to run your applications without adaptation efforts while enjoying remarkable batch scheduling.
