AI Hub Cloud Compiler Quickstart

This guide explains how to request access to the DeGirum Cloud Compiler and retrieve your compiled model.

Getting to the Cloud Compiler

1. Sign up for the AI Hub
   Create an account by clicking Sign Up on the AI Hub login page. Verify your email address and log in. If you already have an account, just log in.
   

   

2. Create a Workspace
   From your Account selector in the upper right corner of the AI Hub, select Create New Workspace and follow the prompts.
   

   

3. Switch to the Workspace
   After creating a workspace, you’ll need to open the Workspace selector and click your Workspace. When your Workspace is selected, you’ll see a green check next to the Workspace name in the selector.
   

   

4. Request Cloud Compiler access
   Open the Cloud Compiler section in the navigation bar and submit the early access request form for your Workspace.
   

   

5. Create or get access to a Model Zoo
   After we enable the Cloud Compiler for your Workspace, you can create a Model Zoo.
   The Cloud Compiler will automatically create a model zoo if no other model zoos exist, but if you want to customize the name of the Model Zoo where the Cloud Compiler places compiled models, create a Model Zoo. For more detailed instructions about how to create a Model Zoo, click here.
   

   

6. Visit the Cloud Compiler
   When your Workspace is given access to the Cloud Compiler, visit the Cloud Compiler page again. This time you will see a Cloud Compiler form. Use the Cloud Compiler form to upload a checkpoint, enter details, select a Model Zoo, and choose a target.
   When you have filled out the form, you may click the Compile button to create a Cloud Compiler task. When the task is finished, the model will be published to your selected Model Zoo, and you will receive an email from the DeGirum AI Hub.
   

   

7. Locate the compiled model
   Navigate to the Model Zoo selected in the Cloud Compiler form and locate your new model. The model will be named based on what you entered in the Model Cloud Compiler form.
   

   

Using your model after compilation

There’s a few ways to use your compiled model immediately after the Cloud Compiler task is done.

Browser Inference: Inference without closing your browser tab

You may use your compiled model from the AI Hub with your browser. Locate your model in your Workspace’s Model Zoo and click its name to open the AI Hub’s Browser Inference interface. Click here to learn more about Browser Inference.

PySDK: Cloud, Local Server, or Hardware Inference

You can use your model with PySDK, a Python library designed to make AI development and deployment simple and efficient. To learn more about PySDK, click here.

If you would like you use your model with Cloud Inference, click the Tokens button in the AI Hub navigation bar to get an AI Hub access token. You’ll use this AI Hub access token whenever you connect to the AI Hub to load your model with PySDK.

If you would instead like to use your model locally with a local AI server or a local AI hardware accelerator, visit your model in the Model Zoo and download the model.

Visit our docs site’s Quickstart or our PySDK Usage Examples to get started with PySDK.
