Many open source projects and studies informed and inspired this project. The following comparisons highlight key feature differences and design trade-offs among various solutions: - [gpud](https://github.com/leptonai/gpud) is an end-to-end solution to monitor and manage any machines (with GPUs). - [imbue-ai/cluster-health](https://github.com/imbue-ai/cluster-health) is a set of Python scripts to validate Imbue NVIDIA H100 clusters. - [prometheus/node\_exporter](https://github.com/prometheus/node_exporter) is a Prometheus metrics exporter for machine level metrics. - [NVIDIA/dcgm-exporter](https://github.com/NVIDIA/dcgm-exporter) is a Prometheus metrics exporter for NVIDIA GPU machines, integrates with [NVIDIA DCGM](https://developer.nvidia.com/dcgm). **[gpud](https://github.com/leptonai/gpud) complements both [node\_exporter](https://github.com/prometheus/node_exporter) and [dcgm-exporter](https://github.com/NVIDIA/dcgm-exporter)** focusing on the easy user experience and end-to-end solutions.
