Amazon demonstrates running the open-source SkyRL framework on SageMaker HyperPod (EKS) to post-train a Qwen3‑VL‑8B vision‑language model with Group Relative Policy Optimization (GRPO). Using a HyperPod Ray cluster with shared FSx storage, the workflow improved maze solve rate from 43.75% to over 95% on a fixed 64‑maze evaluation set and uses colocated vLLM inference and FSDP-sharded policy training with LoRA adapters.
NVIDIA describes how to integrate its Resiliency Extension (NVRx) with PyTorch FSDP on Amazon EKS to reduce downtime for large multi-node GPU training. The post demonstrates async checkpointing (TorchAsyncCheckpoint), in-process restart, and an in-job restart launcher (ft_launcher), provides H100 2–8 node benchmarks, and publishes reproducible code and a pip-installable nvidia-resiliency-ext package.
