Monitor, debug and profile the jobs running on Cloud accelerators like TPUs and GPUs.
Decision gist · record as of 2026-08-14
Yes, if you are running workloads on Google Cloud TPUs or GPUs and want streamlined Tensorboard integration. The package is actively maintained, has low install friction, and eliminates boilerplate for Vertex AI setup. However, verify the license treatment before use in commercial contexts, and confirm that google-cloud-aiplatform's dependencies fit your environment. Not relevant for non-Google-Cloud accelerator setups.AI-flagged interpretation of the facts on this page — verify before relying
Before you install
- Requires Vertex AI API enabled in Google Cloud console and Vertex AI User IAM role assigned to the service account.
- Low install friction with a pure-Python wheel.

What it is and what it does
Cloud Accelerator Diagnostics is a library for monitoring and profiling machine learning workloads on cloud TPUs and GPUs. It wraps Vertex AI Tensorboard integration, allowing you to automatically capture and upload diagnostic logs from accelerator runs without manual instrumentation of your training code.
The package provides three main entry points: creating Vertex AI Tensorboard instances, creating Experiments within those instances, and starting a background thread that continuously monitors a log directory and uploads new data to Tensorboard. It is designed to work alongside profiling frameworks, and handles the Google Cloud authentication and API calls on your behalf. The main runtime dependency is google-cloud-aiplatform.
Use it for
- Profile workloads running on TPUs and automatically upload traces to Vertex AI Tensorboard for analysis.
- Monitor GPU training jobs and stream diagnostic logs to a centralized Tensorboard instance for debugging.
- Set up a Vertex AI Experiment with automatic Tensorboard attachment to compare multiple accelerator runs.
- Capture and persist accelerator performance metrics without writing custom Google Cloud API boilerplate.
- Debug training failures by reviewing uploaded logs in Vertex AI Tensorboard after a job completes.
