This is not a goal.

Enabling Windows support for host side buffers should be possible and all changes should be isolated to gloo/transport/tcp, if you want to take a stab at it. The I/O multiplexing is Linux specific (it uses epoll).

Can you tell more about where/how you would want to use Gloo?

My situation is,
We have two servers(Windows Server2019) connect with each other by ssh, each of which is equipped with one Nvidia GPU.

My goal is,
training a CNN model leveraging two GPUs, at the assistance of gloo library.

My concern is,
whether gloo would be a good fit, only is there any alternatives?

Updated:
CUDA: 9.0
CuDNN: 7.0.0.5

I would try to use some MPI distribution instead. As I mentioned, Gloo doesn't support Windows and this is not planned, so you'll have to find something else. I believe NCCL doesn't support Windows either. If you're using PyTorch, the only other option is to try and use MPI.
