We can monitor transaction log files for Oracle in AWS RDS

Retrieving Archived Redo Logs
If you are using Oracle Database 11.2.0.2.v7 or later, you can retain archived redo logs and use log miner (DBMS_LOGMNR) to retrieve log information.
For example, the following command retains redo logs for 24 hours:
exec rdsadmin.rdsadmin_util.set_configuration('archivelog retention hours',24);                       
                    
Because these logs are retained on your DB instance, you need to ensure that you have enough storage available on your instance to accommodate the log files. To see how much space you have used in the last "X" hours, use the following query, replacing "X" with the number of hours.
select sum(blocks * block_size) bytes from v$archived_log where next_time>=sysdate-X/24 and dest_id=1;                          
                    
Once you have retained the redo logs, you can use log miner as described in the Oracle documentation.
Previous Methods for Accessing Alert Logs and Listener Logs
You can view the alert and listener logs using the Amazon RDS console. You can also use the following methods to access these logs:
To access the alert log, use the following command:
select message_text from alertlog;
To access the listener log, use the following command:
select message_text from listenerlog;
Note

Oracle rotates the alert and listener logs when they exceed 10MB, at which point they will be unavailable from the Amazon RDS views.

What's replicated, what's not?

Logged operations are replicated. These include, but are not limited to: DDL DML Create/alter table space Create/alter storage group Create/alter buffer pool XML data. Logged LOBs Not logged operations are not replicated. These include, but are not limited to: Database configuration parameters (this allows primary and standby databases to be configured differently). "Not logged initially" tables Not logged LOBs UDF (User Defined Function) libraries. UDF DDL is replicated. But the libraries used by UDF (such as C or Java libraries)  are not replicated, because they are not stored in the database. Users must manually copy the libraries to the standby. Note: You can use database configuration parameter  BLOCKNONLOGGED  to block not logged operations on the primary.

What is Tensor Parallelism and relationship between Buffer and GPU

  Tensor Parallelism in GPU Tensor parallelism is a technique used to distribute the computation of large tensor operations across multiple GPUs or multiple cores within a GPU .   It is an essential method for improving the performance and scalability of deep learning models, particularly when dealing with very large models that cannot fit into the memory of a single GPU. Key Concepts Tensor Operations : Tensors are multidimensional arrays used extensively in deep learning. Common tensor operations include matrix multiplication, convolution, and element-wise operations. Parallelism : Parallelism involves dividing a task into smaller sub-tasks that can be executed simultaneously. This approach leverages the parallel processing capabilities of GPUs to speed up computations. How Tensor Parallelism Works Splitting Tensors : The core idea of tensor parallelism is to split large tensors into smaller chunks that can be processed in parallel. Each chunk is assigned to a different GP...

What is the benefit of using Quantization in LLM

Quantization is a technique used in LLMs (Large Language Models) to reduce the memory requirements for storing and training the model parameters. It involves reducing the precision of the model weights from 32-bit floating-point numbers (FP32) to lower precision formats, such as 16-bit floating-point numbers (FP16) or 8-bit integers (INT8). Bottomline: You can use Quantization to reduce the memory footprint off the model during the training. The usage of quantization in LLMs offers several benefits: Memory Reduction: By reducing the precision of the model weights, quantization significantly reduces the memory footprint required to store the parameters. This is particularly important for LLMs, which can have billions or even trillions of parameters. Quantization allows these models to fit within the memory constraints of GPUs or other hardware accelerators. Training Efficiency: Quantization can also improve the training efficiency of LLMs. Lower precision formats require fewer computati...
