Setup
AIBooster can be used in two ways:
- Using AIBooster Server provided as SaaS
- Deploying AIBooster Server on your own server
Below, we refer to method 1 as the SaaS version and method 2 as the on-premises version, describing the minimum setup for each.
Supported Environment
For machines running Server and Agent, the following conditions must be met:
Server | Agent | |
---|---|---|
CPU | Intel/AMD (64bit) 8 cores | Intel (64bit) (*1) |
GPU | - | NVIDIA Datacenter GPU (*2) |
Memory | 64GB | 32GB |
Storage | 1TB | - |
OS | Ubuntu 24.04 | Ubuntu 24.04 |
- *1: AMD CPUs are not supported unless there is a paid deployment contract.
- *2: Operation has been confirmed on H200, H100, A100, and RTX 6000Ada. GPUs compatible with NVIDIA DCGM may work but are currently not supported.
SaaS Version
Users can start using the product by registering for the AIBooster service and installing the Agent.
User Registration
Please apply to start using the service by filling out the necessary information on the product page. Instructions will be sent to the email address you provided, so please follow them to complete signup.
When you register as a new user, you are not affiliated with any organization. To access the AIBooster Server by joining an organization, you need to either create a new organization or join an existing organization.
Using the Portal
The SaaS version of AIBooster manages dashboards and data in units called "organizations". An AIBooster Server instance is created for each organization, and users belonging to the same organization will reference the same dashboards and data. A dedicated portal is provided for managing organizations and users belonging to organizations.
Creating a New Organization
Access the portal page and click "Create Organization" from the top right of the page. Creating a new organization takes several minutes to several tens of minutes. Please wait until "Ready" is displayed in the Status column.
Joining an Existing Organization
Please inform the owner of an existing organization of your email address and request to be added to the organization through the portal. Once the owner adds the user, you will be able to access information about the target organization on the portal.
Accessing the Organization's Server
In the portal, you can see a list of organizations you belong to. Clicking the Dashboard URL of the target organization will give you access to that organization's dashboard. This URL will not change unless you recreate the organization, so please bookmark it directly for use.
Installing the Agent
The keys and access information for the agent differ for each organization the user belongs to. Select an organization in the portal and click the Install Agent button to display installation instructions including this information. Copy the displayed instructions and execute them on the target compute node.
On-Premises Version
In the on-premises version, you can start using the product by installing AIBooster Server and Agent on your nodes.
Here, we introduce the procedure for installing both Server and Agent on a single node. For configuration methods when installing Server and Agent on separate nodes or installing multiple Agents, please refer to Advanced Setup.
Preparing the Node
Please confirm that the target installation node meets the following conditions in addition to the Supported Environment:
- A user exists
- SSH password login is possible
- Administrator privileges (sudo) are available
- Docker v28 or later is installed
If Docker is not installed, it can be easily installed with the following command:
curl -fsSL https://get.docker.com | sh
Also, check the IP address of the target node.
Installing Server and Agent
Execute the following command on the target node or on a Linux machine that can SSH access the target node:
curl -LO assets.aibooster.fixstars.com/faibup.sh && sh faibup.sh
Setup will be completed by answering questions about installation such as the target node's IP address and password information.
Operation Verification
- Open
http://localhost:3000
in a browser - Log in with username:
admin
, password:admin
- When prompted to change password, set a new password
This setup is a minimal configuration for evaluation and development environments. For production environments, please perform installation and security configuration according to Advanced Setup.
