Setup Guide

Recommended Developer Flows

Developer Flows secion describe the recommended flows to develop with Neuron.

More information about Deep Learning AMI (DLAMI) and other flows can be found in this Setup Guide.

Deep Learning AMI (DLAMI)

Neuron packages are installed within Conda environments in AWS Deep Learning AMI (DLAMI) with Conda, and DLAMI is the recommended AMI to use with Neuron SDK.

For more information about Neuron and DLAMI:

• Deep Learning AMI (DLAMI) and Neuron versions Matrix
• Neuron Pip Packages within DLAMI Conda Environments FAQ
• DLAMI with Neuron Release Notes

More information about DLAMI and Inferentia be found also at the DLAMI Documentation .

DL Containers

For containerized applications, it is recommended to use the neuron-rtd container, more details at Containers.

Inferentia support for AWS DL Containers is coming soon.
