The Deep Learning Reference Stack

The Deep Learning Reference Stack, is an integrated, highly-performant open source stack optimized for Intel Xeon Scalable platforms. This open source community release is part of an effort to ensure AI developers have easy access to all features and functionality of Intel platforms. Highly-tuned and built for cloud native environments, the release enables developers to quickly prototype by reducing complexity associated with integrating multiple software components, while still giving users the flexibility to customize their solutions. The stack includes highly tuned software components across the operating system (Clear Linux OS), deep learning framework (TensorFlow and others), deep learning libraries (Intel Math Kernel Library for Deep Neural Networks (MKL-DNN)) and other software components.
