LATEST INNOVATIONS

GPU Marketplace, Fizz UI Revamp, and Protocol Enhancements link

November 29th, 2024

GPU Marketplace

Introducing the GPU Marketplace, a new way to lease high-performance GPUs for your needs:

  • Navigate to the Marketplace tab via the top navigation bar in the Console App.

  • Browse a list of GPUs such as H100 and RTX4090, available in multiple quantities (2x, 4x, 8x). Each GPU entry displays:

    • GPU Name

    • Quantity

    • Region

    • Price per GPU per hour

  • Filter options available to customize your search.

  • Select your preferred template (e.g., Jupyter, Ollama) and lease duration based on your requirements.

  • View the total lease amount, your wallet balance, and confirm the order.

  • Lease creation is seamless — within a minute, you’ll be redirected to the Lease Details page to:

    • Check deployed services

    • View logs

    • Access port mapping and connection URLs

Updated Fizz App UI

We’ve overhauled the Fizz App UI to provide better analytics and usability:

Analytics Dashboard:

  • Visualize key metrics on the homepage:

    • Total GPU, MAC chips, CPU, RAM, and storage

    • Total unique regions

  • Track node growth and FN points over time via a line graph.

  • Explore the new Fizz Network Map that shows the distribution of Fizz nodes across regions.

Leaderboard Performance Optimizations:

  • Faster loading times for the leaderboard.

  • Real-time updates every 30 minutes to ensure the latest information is displayed.

New Features:

  • Bandwidth Meter UI to monitor Fizz bandwidth usage.

  • Resource Utilization Table showing total, utilized, and claimed GPU, CPU, RAM, and storage.

  • Recommended Gateway Highlight:

    • Automatically suggests a gateway based on proximity.

    • Restricts gateways with more than 1,000 Fizz nodes during registration or updates.

Protocol Improvements

New Functionalities:

  • Fizz Slark:

    • Introduced slashing of rewards for Fizz nodes with uptime < 50% or running a version earlier than v1.1.2.
  • Lease Logs Streaming:

    • Enhanced to handle newline and return characters. Logs now update the same line instead of duplicating entries.
  • Autoupgrade for Fizz nodes, so manual upgrades are needed only for major releases.

Independent Gateway Setup:

  • Gateway can now run independently without requiring a provider. Setup using CLI commands is supported.

Dashboard Additions:

  • Fizz dashboards now include:

    • Architecture (amd64, etc.)

    • CUDA version

    • NVIDIA driver version

New ICL Attributes:

  • desired_fizz and desired_provider: Specify deployments on particular Fizz nodes or providers. Detailed Guide available here.

  • Region attribute is now optional, allowing matchmaking across any region.

Matchmaking Enhancements:

  • Fizz token consideration in matchmaking when deployment mode is Fizz, replacing provider-accepted tokens.

Deployment Capabilities:

  • use_public_port: true: Use tunnel ports for public exposure (e.g., for Ray clusters or head nodes). This feature is only available in Fizz deployments.

  • Expanded support for pull_policy and credentials in the Console App.
