Gloo is a collective communications library for multi-machine training, providing primitives like barrier, broadcast, and allreduce. It abstracts inter-machine transport to work over IP networks or high-performance networks (InfiniBand/RoCE) and can use GPUDirect for GPU-to-GPU transfers where supported. It runs on Linux, supports optional CUDA/NCCL and MPI dependencies, and is maintained within the PyTorch distributed ecosystem in a maintenance-only mode for new features.
