Automatically track GPU performance metrics, send alerts when power consumption spikes, and trigger cloud resource scaling to optimize costs and prevent outages.

Workflow Steps

1

Datadog

Monitor GPU metrics

Set up Datadog agents to collect GPU power consumption, temperature, and utilization metrics from your servers or cloud instances. Configure custom dashboards to visualize power surge patterns.

2

Datadog

Create power surge alerts

Configure alert conditions when GPU power consumption exceeds 85% threshold or shows unusual spike patterns. Set up multi-condition alerts that consider both power and temperature metrics.

3

Slack

Send team notifications

Connect Datadog alerts to Slack channels using webhooks. Format messages to include GPU ID, current power draw, and recommended actions. Tag relevant team members based on severity.

4

AWS Auto Scaling

Trigger resource scaling

Use Datadog's AWS integration to automatically trigger EC2 Auto Scaling groups when sustained high GPU usage is detected. Scale up compute resources or redistribute workloads to prevent performance degradation.
