../common/generic-attributes.adoc = Deploying and Installing {productname} :docinfo: :doctype: book :experimental:
- WHAT?
-
{productname} is a multi-layered enterprise AI solution that consists of several software components and dependencies.
- WHY?
-
Use this guide to deploy and install {productname} and its dependencies in a consistent and supported manner.
- EFFORT
-
It takes less than one hour of reading time and requires advanced knowledge of Linux deployment.
- GOAL
-
By the end of this guide, you will have {productname} and all required dependencies installed and ready for use.
{productname} is a versatile product consisting of multiple software layers and components. This document outlines the complete workflow for deployment and installation of all {productname} dependencies, as well as {productname} itself. You can also find references to recommended hardware and software requirements, as well as steps to take after the product installation.

Selected parts of {productname} deployment can be automated or performed in a Web UI environment instead of the command line. This includes the following methods:
-
Preparing and configuring {suse}-based servers for AI workloads. This includes deployment of {rke2a}, {ranchera} or {rancherprime}, and {nvidia} GPU driver and {nvoperator} using {sainodeinstaller}.
-
Deploying {productname} workloads using {saideployer}.
-
Deploying {productname} workloads using {sailifecyclemanager}.
