102 | | -## Serve a Model in 3 Easy Steps |
103 | | - |
104 | | -```bash |
105 | | -# Step 1: Create the example model repository |

107 | | -cd server/docs/examples |
108 | | -./fetch_models.sh |
109 | | - |
110 | | -# Step 2: Launch triton from the NGC Triton container |
111 | | -docker run --gpus=1 --rm --net=host -v ${PWD}/model_repository:/models nvcr.io/nvidia/tritonserver:24.07-py3 tritonserver --model-repository=/models |
112 | | - |
113 | | -# Step 3: Sending an Inference Request |
114 | | -# In a separate console, launch the image_client example from the NGC Triton SDK container |
115 | | -docker run -it --rm --net=host nvcr.io/nvidia/tritonserver:24.07-py3-sdk |
116 | | -/workspace/install/bin/image_client -m densenet_onnx -c 3 -s INCEPTION /workspace/images/mug.jpg |
117 | | - |
118 | | -# Inference should return the following |
119 | | -Image '/workspace/images/mug.jpg': |
120 | | - 15.346230 (504) = COFFEE MUG |
121 | | - 13.224326 (968) = CUP |

156 | | -### Using Triton |
157 | | - |
158 | | -#### Preparing Models for Triton Inference Server |
159 | | - |
160 | | -The first step in using Triton to serve your models is to place one or |
161 | | -more models into a [model repository](docs/user_guide/model_repository.md). Depending on |
162 | | -the type of the model and on what Triton capabilities you want to enable for |
163 | | -the model, you may need to create a [model |
164 | | -configuration](docs/user_guide/model_configuration.md) for the model. |
165 | | - |
166 | | -- [Add custom operations to Triton if needed by your model](docs/user_guide/custom_operations.md) |
167 | | -- Enable model pipelining with [Model Ensemble](docs/user_guide/architecture.md#ensemble-models) |
168 | | - and [Business Logic Scripting (BLS)](https://github.com/triton-inference-server/python_backend#business-logic-scripting) |
169 | | -- Optimize your models setting [scheduling and batching](docs/user_guide/architecture.md#models-and-schedulers) |
170 | | - parameters and [model instances](docs/user_guide/model_configuration.md#instance-groups). |
171 | | -- Use the [Model Analyzer tool](https://github.com/triton-inference-server/model_analyzer) |
172 | | - to help optimize your model configuration with profiling |
173 | | -- Learn how to [explicitly manage what models are available by loading and |
174 | | - unloading models](docs/user_guide/model_management.md) |
175 | | - |
176 | | -#### Configure and Use Triton Inference Server |
177 | | - |
178 | | -- Read the [Quick Start Guide](docs/getting_started/quickstart.md) to run Triton Inference |
179 | | - Server on both GPU and CPU |
180 | | -- Triton supports multiple execution engines, called |
181 | | - [backends](https://github.com/triton-inference-server/backend#where-can-i-find-all-the-backends-that-are-available-for-triton), including |
182 | | - [TensorRT](https://github.com/triton-inference-server/tensorrt_backend), |
183 | | - [TensorFlow](https://github.com/triton-inference-server/tensorflow_backend), |
184 | | - [PyTorch](https://github.com/triton-inference-server/pytorch_backend), |
185 | | - [ONNX](https://github.com/triton-inference-server/onnxruntime_backend), |
186 | | - [OpenVINO](https://github.com/triton-inference-server/openvino_backend), |
187 | | - [Python](https://github.com/triton-inference-server/python_backend), and more |
188 | | -- Not all the above backends are supported on every platform supported by Triton. |
189 | | - Look at the |
190 | | - [Backend-Platform Support Matrix](https://github.com/triton-inference-server/backend/blob/main/docs/backend_platform_support_matrix.md) |
191 | | - to learn which backends are supported on your target platform. |
192 | | -- Learn how to [optimize performance](docs/user_guide/optimization.md) using the |
193 | | - [Performance Analyzer](https://github.com/triton-inference-server/perf_analyzer/blob/main/README.md) |
194 | | - and |
195 | | - [Model Analyzer](https://github.com/triton-inference-server/model_analyzer) |
196 | | -- Learn how to [manage loading and unloading models](docs/user_guide/model_management.md) in |
197 | | - Triton |
198 | | -- Send requests directly to Triton with the [HTTP/REST JSON-based |
199 | | - or gRPC protocols](docs/customization_guide/inference_protocols.md#httprest-and-grpc-protocols) |
200 | | - |
201 | | -#### Client Support and Examples |
202 | | - |
203 | | -A Triton *client* application sends inference and other requests to Triton. The |
204 | | -[Python and C++ client libraries](https://github.com/triton-inference-server/client) |
205 | | -provide APIs to simplify this communication. |
206 | | - |
207 | | -- Review client examples for [C++](https://github.com/triton-inference-server/client/blob/main/src/c%2B%2B/examples), |
208 | | - [Python](https://github.com/triton-inference-server/client/blob/main/src/python/examples), |
209 | | - and [Java](https://github.com/triton-inference-server/client/blob/main/src/java/src/main/java/triton/client/examples) |
210 | | -- Configure [HTTP](https://github.com/triton-inference-server/client#http-options) |
211 | | - and [gRPC](https://github.com/triton-inference-server/client#grpc-options) |
212 | | - client options |
213 | | -- Send input data (e.g. a jpeg image) directly to Triton in the [body of an HTTP |
214 | | - request without any additional metadata](https://github.com/triton-inference-server/server/blob/main/docs/protocol/extension_binary_data.md#raw-binary-request) |
