WackyRabbit7 It is conceptually different than actually training, etc.

The service agent is mostly one without a gpu, runs several tasks each on their own container, for example: autoscaler, the orchestrators for our hyperparameter opt and/or pipelines. I think it even uses the same hardware (by default?) of the trains-server.

Also, if I'm not mistaken some people are using it (planning to?) to push models to production.

I wonder if anyone else can share their view since this is a relatively new feature (AHEM)
