Data Parallel Model vs Pipeline Parallelism

Developers should learn and use the Data Parallel Model when dealing with large datasets or computationally intensive tasks that can be broken down into independent operations, such as training neural networks, processing images, or running simulations meets developers should learn pipeline parallelism when working with large neural networks or complex data processing pipelines that do not fit into a single gpu's memory or require faster throughput. Here's our take.
