How can I build my own PyTorch machine-learning model and train it faster on Databricks by using multiple machines/GPUs instead of just one?

@Suheb , You may look at the torch distributor. It provides multiple distributed training options, including single-node with multiple-GPU training and multi-node training. Below are the references for you.
