The following sections of the documentation describes different options on how to install W&B Server, the shared responsibility model, step-by-step installation and configuration guides.

Recommendations

W&B recommends the following when configuring W&B Server:

1. Run the W&B Server Docker container with an external storage and an external MySQL database in order to preserve the state outside of a container. This protects the data from being accidentally deleted if the container dies or crashes.
2. Leverage Kubernetes to run the W&B Server Docker image and expose the wandb service.
3. Set up and manage a scale-able file system if you plan on using W&B Server for production-related work.

System Requirements

W&B Server requires a machine with at least

• 4 cores of CPU &
• 8GB of memory (RAM)

Your W&B data will be saved on a persistent volume or external database, ensuring that it is preserved across different versions of the container.

tip

For enterprise customers, W&B offers extensive technical support and frequent installation updates for privately hosted instances.
