In the rapidly evolving world of e-commerce, visual search has become a game-changing technology. Poshmark, a leading fashion resale marketplace, has developed Posh Lens – an advanced visual search engine that revolutionizes how shoppers discover and purchase items.
Under the hood of Posh Lens lies Milvus, a vector database enabling efficient product search and recommendation across our vast catalog of over 150 million items. However, with such an extensive and growing dataset, maintaining high-performance search capabilities while scaling AI infrastructure presents significant challenges.
In this talk, Mahesh Pasupuleti shares:
- The architecture and strategies to scale Milvus effectively within the Posh Lens infrastructure
- Key considerations include optimizing vector indexing, managing data partitioning, and ensuring query efficiency amidst large-scale data growth
- Distributed computing principles and advanced indexing techniques to handle the complexity of Poshmark’s diverse product catalog

TorchTitan is a proof-of-concept for Large-scale LLM training using native PyTorch. It is a repo that showcases PyTorch's latest distributed training features in a clean, minimal codebase.
In this talk, Tianyu will share TorchTitan’s design and optimizations for the Llama 3.1 family of LLMs, spanning 8 billion to 405 billion parameters, and showcase its performance, composability, and scalability.
As large-scale machine learning becomes increasingly GPU-centric, modern high-performance hardware like NVMe storage and RDMA networks (InfiniBand or specialized NICs) are becoming more widespread. To fully leverage these resources, it’s crucial to build a balanced architecture that avoids GPU underutilization. In this talk, we will explore various strategies to address this challenge by effectively utilizing these advanced hardware components. Specifically, we will present experimental results from building a Kubernetes-native distributed caching layer, utilizing NVMe storage and high-speed RDMA networks to optimize data access for PyTorch training.
