Self managed

info

W&B recommends fully managed deployment options such as W&B Multi-tenant Cloud or W&B Dedicated Cloud deployment types. W&B fully managed services are simple and secure to use, with minimum to no configuration required.

Deploy W&B Server on your AWS, GCP, or Azure cloud account or within your on-premises infrastructure.

Your IT/DevOps/MLOps team is responsible for provisioning your deployment, managing upgrades, and continuously maintaining your self managed W&B Server instance.

Deploy W&B Server within self managed cloud accountsโ€‹

W&B recommends that you use official W&B Terraform scripts to deploy W&B Server into your AWS, GCP, or Azure cloud account.

See specific cloud provider documentation for more information on how to set up W&B Server in AWS, GCP or Azure.

Deploy W&B Server in on-prem infrastructureโ€‹

You need to configure several infrastructure components in order to set up W&B Server in your on-prem infrastructure. Some of those components include include, but are not limited to:

  • (Strongly recommended) Kubernetes cluster
  • MySQL 8 database cluster
  • Amazon S3-compatible object storage
  • Redis cache cluster

See Install on on-prem infrastructure for more information on how to to install W&B Server on your on-prem infrastructure. W&B can provide recommendations for the different components and provide guidance through the installation process.

Deploy W&B Server on a custom cloud platformโ€‹

You can deploy W&B Server to a cloud platform that is not AWS, GCP, or Azure. Requirements for that are similar to that for deploying in on-prem infrastructure.

Obtain your W&B Server licenseโ€‹

You need a W&B trial license to complete your configuration of the W&B server. Open the Deploy Manager to generate a free trial license.

note

If you do not already have a W&B account then you will need to create one to generate your free license.

The URL will redirect you to a Get a License for W&B Local form. Provide the following information:

  1. Choose a deployment type from the Choose Platform step.
  2. Select the owner of the license or add a new organization in the Basic Information step.
  3. Provide a name for the instance in the Name of Instance field and optionally provide a description in the Description field in the Get a License step.
  4. Select the Generate License Key button.

A page with an overview of your deployment along with the license associated to the instance will be displayed.
