Techniques that facilitate model support in deep learning are provided. In one example, a system includes a graphics processing unit and a central processing unit memory. The graphics processing unit processes data to train a deep neural network. The central processing unit memory stores a portion of the data to train the deep neural network. The graphics processing unit provides, during a forward pass process of the deep neural network that traverses through a set of layers for the deep neural network from a first layer of the set of layers to a last layer of the set of layers that provides a set of outputs for the deep neural network, input data for a layer from the set of layers for the deep neural network to the central processing unit memory.
