Developers and data scientists are increasingly turning to Google Kubernetes Engine (GKE) to run demanding workloads like machine learning, visualization/rendering and high-performance computing, leveraging GKE’s support for NVIDIA GPUs. In the current economic climate, customers are under pressure to do more with fewer resources, and cost savings are top of mind. To help, in July, we launched a GPU time-sharing feature on GKE that lets multiple containers share a single physical GPU, thereby improving its utilization. In addition to GKE’s existing support for multi-instance GPUs for NVIDIA A100 GPUs, this feature extends the benefits of GPU sharing to all families of GPUs on GKE. Contrast this to open source Kubernetes, which only allows for allocation of one full GPU per container. For workloads that only require a fraction of the GPU, this results in under-utilization of the GPU’s massive computational power. Examples of such applications include notebooks and chat bots, which stay idle for prolonged periods, and when they are active, only consume a fraction of GPU. Underutilized GPUs are an acute problem for many inference workloads such as real-time advertising and product recommendations. Since these applications are revenue-generating, business-critical and latency-sensitive, the underlying infrastructure needs to handle sudden load spikes gracefully. While GKE’s autoscaling feature comes in handy, not being able to share a GPU across multiple containers often leads to over-provisioning and cost overruns.Time-sharing GPUs in GKEGPU time-sharing works by allocating time slices to containers sharing a physical GPU in a round-robin fashion. Under the hood, time-slicing works by context switching among all the processes that share the GPU. At any point in time, only one container can occupy the GPU. However, at a fixed time interval, the context switch ensures that each container gets a fair time-slice. The great thing about the time-slicing is that if only one container is using the GPU, it gets the full capacity of the GPU. If another container is added to the same GPU, then each container gets 50% of the GPU’s compute time. This means time-sharing is a great way to oversubscribe GPUs and improve their utilization. By combining GPU sharing capabilities with GKE’s industry-leading auto-scaling and auto-provisioning capabilities, you can scale GPUs automatically up or down, offering superior performance at lower costs. Early adopters of time-sharing GPU nodes are using the technology to turbocharge their use of GKE for demanding workloads. San Diego Supercomputing Center (SDSC) benchmarked the performance of time-sharing GPUs on GKE and found that even for the low-end T4 GPUs, sharing increased job throughput by about 40%. For the high-end A100 GPUs, GPU sharing offered a 4.5x throughput increase, which is truly transformational.NVIDIA multi-instance GPUs (MIG) in GKEGKE’s GPU time-sharing feature is complementary to multi-instance GPUs, which allow you to partition a single NVIDIA A100 GPU into up to seven instances, thus improving GPU utilization and reducing your costs. Each instance with its own high-bandwidth memory, cache and compute cores can be allocated to one container, for a maximum of seven containers per single NVIDIA A100 GPU. Multi-instance GPUs provide hardware isolation between workloads, and consistent and predictable QoS for all containers running on the GPU. Time-sharing GPUs vs. multi-instance GPUsYou can configure time-sharing GPUs on any NVIDIA GPU on GKE including the A100. Multi-instance GPUs are only available in the A100 accelerators.If your workloads require hardware isolation from other containers on the same physical GPU, you should use multi-instance GPUs. A container that uses a multi-instance GPU instance can only access the CPU and memory resources available to that instance. As such, multi-instance GPUs are better suited to when you need predictable throughput and latency for parallel workloads. But if there are fewer containers running on a multi-instance GPU than available instances then the remaining instances will be unused. On the other hand, in the case of time-sharing, context switching lets every container access the full power of the underlying physical GPU. Therefore, if only one container is running, it still gets the full capacity of the GPU. Time-shared GPUs are ideal for running workloads that need only a fraction of GPU power and burstable workloads. Time-sharing allows a maximum of 48 containers to share a physical GPU whereas multi-instance GPUs on A100 allows up to a maximum of 7 partitions. If you want to maximize your GPU utilization, you can configure time-sharing for each multi-instance GPU partition. You can then run multiple containers on each partition, with those containers sharing access to the resources on that partition.Get started todayThe combination of GPUs and GKE is proving to be a real game-changer. GKE brings auto-provisioning, autoscaling and management simplicity, while GPUs bring superior processing power. With the help of GKE, data scientists, developers and infrastructure teams can build, train and serve the workloads without having to worry about underlying infrastructure, portability, compatibility, load balancing and scalability issues. And now, with GPU time-sharing, you can match your workload acceleration needs with right-sized GPU resources. Moreover, you can leverage the power of GKE to automatically scale the infrastructure to efficiently serve your acceleration needs while delivering a better user experience and minimizing operational costs. To get started with time-sharing GPUs in GKE, check out the documentation.Related ArticleUsing Google Kubernetes Engine’s GPU sharing to search for neutrinosNative support for GPU time sharing and A100 Multi-Instance GPU partitioning allowed many more IceCube ray-tracing simulations from the s…Read Article

Finding ways to increase customer loyalty and profitability in a post-COVID world is top of mind for hotels, bars, and restaurants. Unfortunately, many food and beverage services providers struggle to deliver the personalized experiences that keep guests coming back for more. The reality is that most traditional hospitality apps offer only limited insight into guest activities, preferences, underlying operating costs, and other essential details. We built SevenRooms to help food and beverage operators create truly memorable experiences by managing and personalizing every step of the guest journey. With SevenRooms, restaurants in more than 250 cities globally leverage technology and data to provide unforgettable hospitality experiences with a human touch. That includes seating guests at their favorite table, pouring complimentary glasses of wine from a preferred vintage, offering special menu options, and personalized experiences for special occasions. Scaling guest experience and retention on Google CloudWhen developing SevenRooms, we needed a technology partner that would enable our small team to securely scale services, automate manual tasks, and accelerate time to market while reducing IT costs. That’s why we started working withGoogle App Engine—and later became more involved with the Google for Startups Cloud Program.We soon realized many traditional apps lacked the integrations and capabilities needed to respond to the unique challenges facing food and beverage operators that the Google for Startups Cloud Program services provide. With guidance from experts on the Google Startups Success team, we quickly transformed SevenRooms from a beta restaurant and nightclub reservation and guest management point solution into a full-fledged guest experience and retention platform that analyzes actionable data to automatically build and continuously update detailed guest profiles. The combination of Google App Engine and other Google Cloud solutions makes everything easier to build and scale. We’re seeing our total cost of ownership (TCO) decline by 10-15%, so we can shift additional resources to R&D to help customers create one-of-a-kind interactions with their guests. And importantly, we can bring new products to market 200-300% faster than competitors.Because SevenRooms handles a lot of sensitive guest data, stringent security protocols are vital. We store all data onGoogle Cloud, taking advantage of its highly secure-by-design infrastructure and built-in support for international data privacy laws such as GDPR. We useBigQuery andLooker for data analysis and reporting, and power our NoSQL database withFirestore. We also scale workloads and runElasticsearch onGoogle Compute Engine (GCE)—and seamlessly integrate our reservation booking engine with Google Maps andGoogle Search. In the future, we’re looking to further market actionable guest data with the help of advancedmachine learning (ML) models withTensorFlow andGoogle Cloud Tensor Processing Units (TPUs). Cloud TPUs and Google Cloud data and analytics services are fully integrated with other Google Cloud offerings, includingGoogle Kubernetes Engine (GKE). By running ML workloads on Cloud TPUs, SevenRooms will benefit from Google Cloud’s leading networking and data analytics technologies such as BigQuery. We’re also exploring additional Google Cloud solutions such asAnthos to unify the management of infrastructure and applications across on-premises, edge, and multiple public clouds, as well asGoogle Cloud Run to deploy scalable containerized applications on a fully managed serverless platform. These solutions will enable us to continue to quickly expand our services and offer customers a variety of new benefits. Building a profitable, sustainable future in food and beverageOur work with the Google Startups Success team has been instrumental to helping us get where we are today. Their responsiveness is incredible and stands out compared to services from other technology providers. Google Cloud gives us a highly secure infrastructure and next-level training to evolve our infrastructure using solutions such as BigQuery andBackup and Disaster Recovery.We also work with Google Cloud partner, DoiT International, to further scale and optimize our operations. In particular, DoiT provided expert scripts to short-cut lengthy processes, while actively troubleshooting any issues or questions that came up. DoiT continues to share guidance in key areas for future products and features. They have provided expertise for architecture, infrastructure and cost management. Moving forward, we’re excited to work with Google Cloud and DoiT to handle a growing surge in users which we anticipate in 2023 and beyond.With Google Cloud, SevenRooms is revitalizing food and beverage service delivery by enabling businesses to cultivate and maintain direct guest relationships, deliver exceptional experiences, and encourage repeat visits. We’ve compiled many case studies that demonstrate how our customers see great results by personalizing their interactions with guests, from $1.5M in cost savings, to $400K of additional revenue, to a 68% jump in email open rates.Demand for our guest experience and retention platform keeps growing as we help our customers take a people-first approach by delivering unique and tailored dining experiences. We can’t wait to see what we accomplish next as we expand our team and reach new markets worldwide.

Editor’s note: Ivan Ramirez, Gaming Team Lead, works in one of Google Cloud’s most dynamic, and least understood businesses, supporting some of the world’s biggest online gaming companies. He’s in a world of extreme potential, heart-stopping challenges, big teamwork, and managing scarce resources for the maximum outcome. And that’s before we get to the gaming.I assume most people in gaming are lifelong gamers. True?Not in my case, but I did start out playing the world’s best video game. I graduated from Georgia Tech with a degree in Aerospace Engineering and went to NASA. I trained to work on the electrical and thermal control systems of the International Space Station, and simulated things like an explosion or a medical emergency for 12 hours at a time.What was it like moving over to the Gaming industry?I had a lot of jobs before I started at Google in 2016. Now, as a Gaming Team Lead, I’m working with customers in many different aspects of the technology relationship, from working hands on keyboard alongside engineers to giving industry vision presentations to executives and everything in between. The great thing about this industry is that at every level, Gaming wants to be at the bleeding edge of technology. They want to be using the best graphics chips, have the most players online at once, or the fastest networking. They want lots of analytics, for things like placing ads in real time, or detecting cheaters while a game is going on. Look at something like Niantic’s Pokemon GO Fest this year, where players caught over one billion Pokémon, spun over 750 million PokéStops and collectively explored over 100 million kilometers. We’ve got big scale numbers like that with a few customers.How does that affect the rest of Google Cloud?When they push us to go faster and deliver more, it helps us invent the future. Gaming companies also value the freedom to innovate, and have a real passion for their customers, which is something Google Cloud shares in our culture, as well as our leadership in scale, data analytics and more.You say you did a lot of different jobs, but you’ve been here six years. Why?I grew up in Lima, Peru. When I was 10, my dad got an offer to relocate to Miami. It was tough for him, but it was an opportunity he couldn’t pass up. Later, I wanted to go to Georgia Tech because they were strong for Aerospace, even though in Peru you traditionally stay close to family. I think I learned early on that you have to get over your comfort zone to rise up. I’ve had a great time here at Google because it enables me to continue to grow. Over the six years it’s always stayed interesting. Being at Google pushes me to try new things.Do you think Gaming has affected you personally, too?Maybe it affects the way I think about work and people. Some of my proudest moments are helping people, connecting them with others. I try to teach them some of the things I’ve learned, including taking care of yourself. We are people who want to say “yes” to everything, who feel like there’s always something more that we can do, or another project we can improve. You have to find limits and ways to care for yourself and your family too, or you won’t be able to last over the long haul, or even be a good partner and teammate.Related ArticleHear how this Google M&A Lead is helping to build a more diverse Cloud ecosystemPrincipal for Google Cloud’s Mergers & Acquisitions business and founder of Google’s Black+TechAmplify, Wayne Kimball, Jr. shares how inv…Read Article

Editor’s note: This blog was originally published by Siemplify on Oct. 29, 2019.Much the same way that nursing teams need to share patient healthcare updates when their shift ends, security operations centers (SOC) need to have smooth shift-handoff procedures in place to ensure that continuous monitoring of their networks and systems is maintained.Without proper planning, knowledge gaps can arise during the shift-change process. These include:Incomplete details: Updates, such as the work that has been done to address active incidents and the proposed duties to continue these efforts, are not thoroughly shared.Incorrect assumptions: Operating with fragmented information, teams engage in repetitive tasks, or worse, specific investigations are skipped entirely because it is assumed they were completed by another shift.Dropped tasks: From one shift to the next, some tasks can fall entirely through the cracks and are never reported to the incoming personnel.Because of these gaps, security analysts tend to spend too much time following up with each other to ensure items are completed. With major incidents, this may mean keeping personnel from the previous shift on for a partial or even full second shift until the incident is closed out. Ramifications of being overworked can include physical and mental fatigue and even burnout.Fortunately, these gaps are not inevitable.Getting a process in placeDecide on the basicsBefore you can succeed with shift handoffs, you need to decide how you will design your shifts. Will shifts be staggered? Will they be covered from geographically different regions (i.e. “follow the sun” model)? If so, handovers may be challenged by language and cultural differences.Do you allow for people to swap shifts (i.e. work the early shift one week and the graveyard the next)? If shifts are fixed then you can create shift teams. If shifts rotate, you need to ensure analysts work each shift for a set period of time to adapt to the specific types of cases and ancillary work that each shift is responsible for. Rotating shifts also can infuse a fresh set of eyes to processes or problems. It also may help retain talent, as working consistently irregular hours can have a negative impact on one’s health.Properly share communicationWhen you work in a SOC, you don’t punch in and out like in the old factory days. Active cases may require you or someone from the team to arrive early to receive a debriefing, or stay late to deliver your own to arriving colleagues (as well as complete any pending paperwork). Streamlining the transfer process is critical but simple: Create a standard handoff log template that each shift uses to clearly communicate tasks and action items. Be prepared for questions.Log activitiesSecurity orchestration, automation, and response (SOAR) technology can help in the collaboration process. In addition, SOAR gives managers the ability to automatically assign cases to the appropriate analyst. Through playbooks, escalations can be defined and automated based on the processes that are unique to your organization.Related ArticleHow to overcome 5 common SecOps challengesHere are 5 common issues that many SecOps teams struggle with—and how to fix them.Read Article

Today, we’re thrilled to announce two new security products driven by our acquisition of RiskIQ just over one year ago that deliver on our vision to provide deeper context into threat actors and help customers lock down their infrastructure.
Track threat actor activity and patterns with Microsoft Defender Threat Intelligence
This new product helps security operations teams uncover attacker infrastructure and accelerate investigation and remediation with more context, insights, and analysis than ever before. While threat intelligence is already built into the real time detections of our platform and security products like Microsoft Sentinel, customers also need direct access to real-time data and Microsoft’s unmatched signal to proactively hunt for threats across their environments.
For example, adversaries often run their attacks from many machines, with unique IP addresses. Tracing the actor behind an attack and tracking down their entire toolkit is challenging and time-consuming. Using built-in AI and machine learning, Defender Threat Intelligence uncovers the attacker or threat family and the elements of their malicious infrastructure. Armed with this information, security teams can then find and remove adversary tools within their organization and block their future use in tools like Microsoft Sentinel, helping to prevent future attacks.
See your business the way an attacker can with Microsoft Defender External Attack Surface Management
The new Defender External Attack Surface Management gives security teams the ability to discover unknown and unmanaged resources that are visible and accessible from the internet—essentially the same view an attacker has when selecting their target. Defender External Attack Surface Management helps customers discover unmanaged resources that could be potential entry points for an attacker.
Microsoft Defender External Attack Surface Management scans the internet and its connections every day. This builds a complete catalogue of a customer’s environment, discovering internet-facing resources, even the agentless and unmanaged assets. Continuous monitoring, without the need for agents or credentials, prioritizes new vulnerabilities. With this complete view of the organization, customers can take recommended steps to mitigate risk by bringing these resources under secure management within tools like Microsoft Defender for Cloud.
Read the full threat intelligence announcement and to learn more about how Microsoft Defender Threat Intelligence and Microsoft Sentinel work together, read the Tech Communities blog.
Additionally, in the spirit of continuous innovation and bringing as much of the digital environment under secure management as possible, we are proud to announce the new Microsoft Sentinel solution for SAP. Security teams can now monitor, detect, and respond to SAP alerts all from our cloud-native SIEM, Microsoft SIEM.
To learn more about these products and to see live demos, visit us at Black Hat USA, Microsoft Booth 2340. You can also register now for the Stop Ransomware with Microsoft Security digital event on September 15, 2022, to watch in-depth demos of the latest threat intelligence technology.

Let's dig into the details.
Introducing the Cost Details API
You already know you can dig into your cost and usage data from the Azure portal or Microsoft 365 admin center. You may even know that you can export cost data to storage on a recurring schedule. While many organizations use both, some have more ad-hoc requirements where they need an on-demand solution. Traditionally, these organizations would use the Consumption UsageDetails API or the older Enterprise Agreement (EA) consumption.azure.com APIs. This month, we introduced a new on-demand solution for downloading granular cost details with the new Cost Details API – now generally available for Enterprise Agreement and Microsoft Customer Agreement accounts.
The Cost Details API comes with improved security, stability, and scalability over the UsageDetails API and aligns with the schema already being used by Cost Management exports. If you’re still using the older EA key-based APIs, then you’ll also get additional benefits like a single dataset for all cost data, including Marketplace and reservation purchases, an option to amortize reservation purchases, as well as support for splitting shared costs with cost allocation.
With the general availability of Cost Details this month, the UsageDetails and consumption.azure.com APIs are in maintenance and will not receive updates. Please migrate to scheduled exports for large accounts with a lot of cost data or to streamline recurring data dumps. If you have requirements that necessitate a more on-demand solution, please migrate to the Cost Details API.
To learn more about the Cost Details API, see Get cost details for a pay-as-you-go subscription. For additional information about when to select Exports or Cost Details, see Choose a cost details solution.
Filter cost recommendations by tag
Nearly every conversation we have with organizations starts with cost optimization and ensuring their workloads are running efficiently. And when it comes to cost optimization, we always tell people to start in Azure Advisor, which gives a great picture of high-confidence recommendations to reduce cost. At the same time, this can be daunting for large teams with resources spread across many resource groups and subscriptions. To help facilitate this, you can now filter your recommendations by tag in Azure Advisor.
With the power of tag filters, you can now get recommendations scoped to a business unit, project, or application to filter recommendations and calculate scores using tags you have already assigned to Azure resources, resource groups, and subscriptions.
To learn more, visit how to filter Advisor recommendations using tags.
How to choose the right Azure services for your applications—It’s not A or B
If you’ve been working with Azure for any period, you might have grappled with the question—which Azure service is best to run my apps on? This is an important decision because the services you choose will dictate your resource planning, budget, timelines, and, ultimately, the time to market for your business. It impacts the cost of not only the initial delivery, but also the ongoing maintenance of your applications.
Read on as Asir Selvasingh and Ajai Peddapanga summarize your options on the Azure blog to get you started on the right foot. They’ll also share details about their new e-book on the subject.
