 16-bit training
 =================
+Lightning offers 16-bit training for CPUs, GPUs and TPUs.

+TPU support
+===========
+
+Lightning supports running on TPUs. At this moment, TPUs are only available
+on Google Cloud (GCP). For more information on TPUs
+`watch this video <https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kPMpmcl_Pyw>`_.
+
+Live demo
+----------
+Check out this `Google Colab <https://colab.research.google.com/drive/1-_LKx4HwAxl5M6xPJmqAAu444LTDQoa3>`_ to see how to train MNIST on TPUs.
+
+TPU Terminology
+---------------
+A TPU is a Tensor processing unit. Each TPU has 8 cores where each
+core is optimized for 128x128 matrix multiplies. In general, a single
+TPU is about as fast as 5 V100 GPUs!
+
+A TPU pod hosts many TPUs on it. Currently, TPU pod v2 has 2048 cores!
+You can request a full pod from Google cloud or a "slice" which gives you
+some subset of those 2048 cores.
+
+How to access TPUs
+-------------------
+To access TPUs there are two main ways.
+
+1. Using google colab.
+2. Using Google Cloud (GCP).
+
+Colab TPUs
+-----------
+Colab is like a jupyter notebook with a free GPU or TPU
+hosted on GCP.
+
+To get a TPU on colab, follow these steps:
+
+1. Go to https://colab.research.google.com/.
+
+2. Click "new notebook" (bottom right of pop-up).
+
+3. Click runtime > change runtime settings. Select Python 3,
+and hardware accelerator "TPU". This will give you a TPU with 8 cores.
+
+4. Next, insert this code into the first cell and execute. This
+will install the xla library that interfaces between PyTorch and
+the TPU.
+
+.. code-block:: python
+
+    import collections
+    from datetime import datetime, timedelta
+    import os
+    import requests
+    import threading
+
+    _VersionConfig = collections.namedtuple('_VersionConfig', 'wheels,server')
+    VERSION = "xrt==1.15.0"  #@param ["xrt==1.15.0", "torch_xla==nightly"]
+    CONFIG = {
+        'xrt==1.15.0': _VersionConfig('1.15', '1.15.0'),
+        'torch_xla==nightly': _VersionConfig('nightly', 'XRT-dev{}'.format(
+            (datetime.today() - timedelta(1)).strftime('%Y%m%d'))),
+    }[VERSION]
+    DIST_BUCKET = 'gs://tpu-pytorch/wheels'
+    TORCH_WHEEL = 'torch-{}-cp36-cp36m-linux_x86_64.whl'.format(CONFIG.wheels)
+    TORCH_XLA_WHEEL = 'torch_xla-{}-cp36-cp36m-linux_x86_64.whl'.format(CONFIG.wheels)
+    TORCHVISION_WHEEL = 'torchvision-{}-cp36-cp36m-linux_x86_64.whl'.format(CONFIG.wheels)
+
+    # Update TPU XRT version
+    def update_server_xrt():
+      print('Updating server-side XRT to {} ...'.format(CONFIG.server))
+      url = 'http://{TPU_ADDRESS}:8475/requestversion/{XRT_VERSION}'.format(
+          TPU_ADDRESS=os.environ['COLAB_TPU_ADDR'].split(':')[0],
+          XRT_VERSION=CONFIG.server,
+      )
+      print('Done updating server-side XRT: {}'.format(requests.post(url)))
+
+    update = threading.Thread(target=update_server_xrt)
+    update.start()
+
+    # Install Colab TPU compat PyTorch/TPU wheels and dependencies
+    !pip uninstall -y torch torchvision
+    !gsutil cp "$DIST_BUCKET/$TORCH_WHEEL" .
+    !gsutil cp "$DIST_BUCKET/$TORCH_XLA_WHEEL" .
+    !gsutil cp "$DIST_BUCKET/$TORCHVISION_WHEEL" .
+    !pip install "$TORCH_WHEEL"
+    !pip install "$TORCH_XLA_WHEEL"
+    !pip install "$TORCHVISION_WHEEL"
+    !sudo apt-get install libomp5
+    update.join()
+5. Once the above is done, install PyTorch Lightning (v 0.6.1+).
+
+.. code-block::
+
+    ! pip install pytorch-lightning
+
+6. Then set up your LightningModule as normal.
+
+7. TPUs require a DistributedSampler. That means you should change your
+train_dataloader (and val, train) code as follows.
+
+.. code-block:: python
+
+    import torch_xla.core.xla_model as xm
+
+    @pl.data_loader
+    def train_dataloader(self):
+        dataset = MNIST(
+            os.getcwd(),
+            train=True,
+            download=True,
+            transform=transforms.ToTensor()
+        )
+
+        # required for TPU support
+        sampler = None
+        if use_tpu:
+            sampler = torch.utils.data.distributed.DistributedSampler(
+                dataset,
+                num_replicas=xm.xrt_world_size(),
+                rank=xm.get_ordinal(),
+                shuffle=True
+            )
+
+        loader = DataLoader(
+            dataset,
+            sampler=sampler,
+            batch_size=32
+        )
+
+        return loader
+
+8. Configure the number of TPU cores in the trainer. You can only choose
+1 or 8. To use a full TPU pod skip to the TPU pod section.
+
+.. code-block:: python
+
+    import pytorch_lightning as pl
+
+    my_model = MyLightningModule()
+    trainer = pl.Trainer(num_tpu_cores=8)
+    trainer.fit(my_model)
+
+That's it! Your model will train on all 8 TPU cores.
+
+TPU Pod
+--------
+To train on more than 8 cores, your code actually doesn't change!
+All you need to do is submit the following command:
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+    $ python -m torch_xla.distributed.xla_dist
+    --tpu=$TPU_POD_NAME
+    --conda-env=torch-xla-nightly
+    -- python /usr/share/torch-xla-0.5/pytorch/xla/test/test_train_imagenet.py --fake_data
+
+16 bit precision
+-----------------
+Lightning also supports training in 16-bit precision with TPUs.
+By default, TPU training will use 32-bit precision. To enable 16-bit, also
+set the 16-bit flag.
+
+.. code-block:: python
+
+    import pytorch_lightning as pl
+
+    my_model = MyLightningModule()
+    trainer = pl.Trainer(num_tpu_cores=8, precision=16)
+    trainer.fit(my_model)
+
+Under the hood the xla library will use the `bfloat16 type <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bfloat16_floating-point_format>`_.
+
+
+About XLA
+----------
+XLA is the library that interfaces PyTorch with the TPUs.
+For more information check out `XLA <https://github.com/pytorch/xla>`_.
