Overview of TensorFlow on Azure

TensorFlow is an open source, deep learning library that was introduced by Google and is used for solving a range of tasks. TensorFlow was introduced to fulfill the requirement of building and training complex neural networks in order to detect and decipher patterns, recognitions, and correlations, similar to that of the learning process of the human brain. Google introduced the TPU (Tensor Processing Unit) cloud platform for running the TensorFlow Python API and utilizing TensorFlow graph units.

In order to get started on TensorFlow with Azure, the two easiest options are as follows:

  • Using Deep Learning toolkit for Data Science VM (Deep Learning VM): Provides a Windows GPU version of mxnet, CNTK, TensorFlow, and Keras that's able to run on a GPU-NC, N-series, or FPGA infrastructure.
  • Using Data Science VM for Azure: Support for CNTK, TensorFlow...
