Configuring Scale and GPUs
==========================
Increasing the scale of a Ray Train training run is simple and can often
be done in a few lines of code.

The main interface for configuring scale
is the :class:`~ray.train.ScalingConfig`. Specifically, this configuration
sets the number of training workers and the resources they should use.

A *worker* here refers to a *training worker*. Technically, it's a
:ref:`Ray Actor <actor-key-concept>` that runs your training function.
