AI Cloud Docs
AI Cloud gives teams one place to launch GPU-backed compute, application runtimes, developer workspaces, and inference endpoints. The product keeps tenant, project, access, billing, security, and runtime lifecycle behavior consistent across those surfaces.
This public portal is for users, tenant administrators, app builders, and API consumers. Engineering design, security evidence, deployment runbooks, and internal implementation details live in the protected engineering portal.
Five Documentation Paths
| Path | Use it for |
|---|---|
| Learn | Product model, capabilities, hierarchy, roles, onboarding, and user journeys. |
| Use AI Cloud | Task procedures for account security, compute, apps, storage, cost, connection, and cleanup. |
| Administer | Projects, members, service accounts, quota, spend, access review, and team handoff. |
| Build and Automate | App packaging, CLI login, SDK/API authentication, project context, retries, and compatibility. |
| Reference and Support | Capability/runtime reference, troubleshooting, errors, evidence packet, and escalation ownership. |

Product Model
AI Cloud is organized around a few concepts that appear throughout the UI, CLI, and API.
| Concept | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Tenant | A customer or organizational workspace. |
| Project | A scoped place to run workloads, assign members, and attribute usage. |
| Runtime | A launched compute node, app, notebook, scheduler, or endpoint. |
| App | A packaged runtime experience that users can launch repeatedly. |
| Access | Membership, roles, SSH keys, API keys, service accounts, and sessions. |
| Billing | Balance, entitlement, hourly burn, usage, and release cleanup posture. |
Self-Service Readiness
The public guide is intended to answer four questions without an internal operator beside the reader:
- Where am I in the tenant/project/resource hierarchy?
- What role do I need for this action?
- What exact user or developer path should I follow?
- What evidence should I collect if the path is blocked?
What You Can Do
- Launch GPU compute and app runtimes from a project.
- Connect through the supported runtime surface: SSH, terminal, notebook, IDE, scheduler UI, application route, or API endpoint.
- Manage your account security, keys, sessions, and project access.
- Package apps so other users can launch a repeatable experience.
- Automate workflows through the CLI, SDKs, and REST API contracts.

Before You Start
You need an AI Cloud account, access to a tenant, and at least one project. If the expected tenant or project is missing after sign-in, ask your tenant admin to confirm your membership and project role before launching work.
Public Documentation Scope
This site intentionally focuses on product usage and integration. It does not publish deployment runbooks, provider operations, internal security evidence, or implementation design details.
