Installation
Installation Methods
NVIDIA Run:ai supports two installation methods:
Install using Helm
The standard installation method using Helm charts. Provides full control and flexibility over configuration and deployment.
Install using Base Command Manager (BCM)
A guided installation method available through NVIDIA Base Command Manager (cm-kubernetes-setup) intended to simplify deployment, employing defaults meant to enable most NVIDIA Run:ai capabilities on NVIDIA DGX SuperPOD systems.
NVIDIA Run:ai Components
As part of the installation process, you will install:
A control plane managing cluster/s
One or more clusters
Both the control plane and clusters require Kubernetes. Typically, the control plane and first cluster are installed on the same Kubernetes cluster.
Installation Types
The self-hosted option is for organizations that cannot use a SaaS solution due to data leakage concerns. NVIDIA Run:ai self-hosting comes with two variants:
Connected
The organization can freely download from the internet (though upload is not allowed)
Air-gapped
The organization has no connection to the internet
