Nvidia Container Toolkit
NVIDIA GPU Container Toolkit 是一套旨在为计算和图形工作负载在符合 OCI 标准的容器中启用 NVIDIA GPU 加速的工具。它作为一个 OCI 容器运行时包装器和 Linux GPU 驱动桥接器，将主机 NVIDIA GPU 驱动映射到容器命名空间，以提供直接的硬件访问。
该工具包包括一个 GPU 加速容器构建器，用于创建预配置为利用硬件加速的镜像。这允许将图形处理单元集成到容器环境中，用于构建和运行计算密集型工作负载。
该项目涵盖了一系列高性能计算领域，包括 AI 模型训练工作流、基于 GPU 的云计算和科学模拟。
