This repository contains a series of Python scripts and configuration files that serve as a complement to the white paper Deploying Enterprise-Ready Generative AI on VMware Cloud Foundation
The scripts provided in this repository are intended to be used for educational purposes but not for production applications. Be aware that LLMs pose inherent vulnerabilities and risks, as illustrated by the OWASP Top 10 for Large Language Model Applications. We strongly encourage customers to pay attention to OWASP guidance and the NIST AI Risk Management Framework to build safe and robust AI systems.
The repository is organized by the following structure:
- The vSphere-and-TKG-config-files directory provides configuration files to set the Tanzu Kubernetes Cluster, NVIDIA GPUs, and Network Kubernetes Operators that provide hardware acceleration services to VMware Tanzu Kubernetes clusters.
- The Examples/LLM-fine-tuning-example directory provides the steps to configure a Python virtual environment suitable for LLM fine-tuning tasks based on a series of Hugging Face libraries. It also includes a Python notebook that illustrates all the steps required to fine-tune the Falcon LLMs on a custom dataset to teach the model to follow instructions.
- The Examples/LLM-serving-wt-vLLM-and-RayServe-example directory provides the configuration steps, the configuration files, and the Python scripts to set a Ray cluster that serves the Falcon LLMs via vLLM running as a Ray Serve application. The Ray cluster gets deployed on Tanzu Kubernetes using Kuberay.
- We also include Starter Packs which provide code examples about the implementation of the following use cases:
