Hardware requirements for RHEL AI
Abstract
Chapter 1. Red Hat Enterprise Linux AI hardware requirements
Various hardware accelerators require different requirements for serving and inferencing as well as installing, generating and training the Granite starter model on Red Hat Enterprise Linux AI.
1.1. Hardware requirements for end-to-end workflow of Granite models
The following charts show the hardware requirements for running the full InstructLab end-to-end workflow to customize the Granite student model. This includes: synthetic data generation (SDG), multi-phase training, and evaluating a custom Granite model.
