# HyperParameterTuningInstanceConfig
<a name="API_HyperParameterTuningInstanceConfig"></a>

The configuration for hyperparameter tuning resources for use in training jobs launched by the tuning job. These resources include compute instances and storage volumes. Specify one or more compute instance configurations and allocation strategies to select resources (optional).

 ** InstanceCount **   <a name="sagemaker-Type-HyperParameterTuningInstanceConfig-InstanceCount"></a>
The number of instances of the type specified by `InstanceType`. Choose an instance count larger than 1 for distributed training algorithms. See [Step 2: Launch a SageMaker Distributed Training Job Using the SageMaker Python SDK](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/sagemaker/latest/dg/data-parallel-use-api.html) for more information.

Valid Range: Minimum value of 0.  
Required: Yes

 ** InstanceType **   <a name="sagemaker-Type-HyperParameterTuningInstanceConfig-InstanceType"></a>
The instance type used for processing of hyperparameter optimization jobs. Choose from general purpose (no GPUs) instance types: ml.m5.xlarge, ml.m5.2xlarge, and ml.m5.4xlarge or compute optimized (no GPUs) instance types: ml.c5.xlarge and ml.c5.2xlarge. For more information about instance types, see [instance type descriptions](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/sagemaker/latest/dg/notebooks-available-instance-types.html).
