Gradient Installer CLI

Gradient Installer is a CLI to set up and manage Gradient private clusters on AWS, GCP, Azure, NVIDIA DGX, and bare metal.

Terraform is used under the hood to setup all the infrastructure. Terraform modules can also be used directly to integrate Gradient into an existing Terraform setup.

Prerequisites

• Paperspace account with an appropriate billing plan and API key

• AWS S3 bucket to store Terraform state

/bin/bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/paperspace/gradient-installer/master/bin/install)"

Profiles

Gradient Installer CLI support multiple profiles. To setup the CLI with a different profile run:

• From Pre-installation steps: artifacts bucket and credentials, SSL certificates or Let's Encrypt Settings

• Domain where Gradient will be accessed
