Chapter 2. Overview of installing and deploying OpenShift Data Science
Red Hat OpenShift Data Science is a platform for data scientists and developers of artificial intelligence (AI) applications. It provides a fully supported environment that lets you rapidly develop, train, test, and deploy machine learning models on-premises and/or in the public cloud.
OpenShift Data Science is provided as a managed cloud service add-on for Red Hat OpenShift or as self-managed software that you can install on-premise or in the public cloud on OpenShift.
For information on installing OpenShift Data Science as self-managed software, see Installing OpenShift Data Science self-managed.
There are two deployment options for Red Hat OpenShift Data Science as a managed cloud service add-on:
OpenShift Dedicated with a Customer Cloud Subscription on Amazon Web Services or Google Cloud Platform
OpenShift Dedicated is a complete OpenShift Container Platform cluster provided as a cloud service, configured for high availability, and dedicated to a single customer. OpenShift Dedicated is professionally managed by Red Hat and hosted on Amazon Web Services (AWS) or Google Cloud Platform (GCP). The Customer Cloud Subscription (CCS) model allows Red Hat to deploy and manage clusters into a customer’s AWS or GCP account. Contact your Red Hat account manager to get OpenShift Dedicated through a CCS.
Red Hat OpenShift Service on AWS (ROSA)
ROSA is a fully-managed, turnkey application platform that allows you to focus on delivering value to your customers by building and deploying applications. You subscribe to the service directly from your AWS account.
Installing OpenShift Data Science as a managed cloud service involves the following high-level tasks:
- Confirm that your OpenShift Dedicated cluster meets all requirements.
- Configure an identity provider for your OpenShift cluster.
- Add administrative users for your OpenShift cluster.
Subscribe to the Red Hat OpenShift Data Science Add-on.
For OpenShift Dedicated with a CCS for AWS or GCP, get a subscription through Red Hat.
For ROSA, get a subscription through the AWS Marketplace.
- Install the OpenShift Data Science Add-on.
- Access the OpenShift Data Science dashboard.
- Optionally, enable graphics processing units (GPUs) in OpenShift Data Science to ensure that your data scientists can use compute-heavy workloads in their models.
