Orchestration: Deployment

This guide walks you through deploying brighter Redact Enterprise Orchestration on a single machine. Orchestration simplifies the deployment and management of the three brighter Redact enterprise containers (Core Service, Inference Container, and Service Utilities) that form the backbone of our anonymization solution.

Software Requirements

Before starting the installation, ensure the following:

  • Your system meets all hardware and software requirements listed here: System Requirements (LINK XXX)
  • The software is supported only on Linux

Installation Guide

Brighter AI Redact Enterprise includes three redact containers managed by Docker Compose. Follow the steps below to deploy the solution on your machine.

  1. Download the Repository
    • Clone the public GitHub repository, which contains all installation scripts:
      git clone https://github.com/brighter-ai/redact-enterprise-orchestration.git
    • Navigate into the directory:
      cd redact-enterprise-orchestration
  2. Add the License File
    • Copy the license file provided by your Brighter AI contact into the cloned repository.
    • Rename it to "license.bal"
    • Example location:
      redact-enterprise-orchestration/license.bal
    • Make sure it is readable by the container, e.g. set it to readable by all with chmod 644 or assign it to a group that the Docker containers are running under with chgrp.
  3. Docker Login and Download Images
    • Log in to the brighter AI Docker registry to download the required images:
      docker login docker.brighter.ai -u enterprise -p <password>
    • Replace with the credentials provided by your brighter AI contact.
    • To start and stop the software, use the provided scripts in the orchestration directory:
      • Start the Software:
        ./start_redact.sh
      • Stop the Software:
        ./stop_redact.sh
    • This will automatically download and deploy the necessary Docker images.

Configuration Options

You can adjust the configuration by editing the docker-compose.env file in the repository.

  1. Adjust Redact Docker Images
    • Modify the image versions to match the GPU-optimized container versions listed in the GPU Optimized Container Tab. Example variables:
      REDACT_IMAGE=<redact_image_version>
      REDACT_GPU_IMAGE=<redact_gpu_image_version>
      REDACT_UTILS_IMAGE=<utils_image_version>
  2. Port Configuration
    • Set API and UI ports:
      REDACT_API_PORT=<desired_api_port>
      REDACT_UI_PORT=<desired_ui_port>
  3. License Directory
    • Adjust the location of the license file as needed. Default is within the redact-enterprise-redaction container:
      `REDACT_LICENSE_FILE="license.bal"
  4. GPU IDs
    • Specify the GPUs to be used by modifying the GPU_IDS variable. Examples:
      GPU_IDS=0 # Use GPU 0
      GPU_IDS=0,1,2 # Use GPUs 0, 1, and 2
      GPU_IDS=all # Use all available GPUs
    • You can use the tool nvidia-smi to find out the GPU IDs for GPUs in your system.
