This guide provides instructions for the following scenarios\n\nRun Ollama in a container Run Ollama outside of a container Use OpenAI\n\nWhile all platforms can use any of the previous scenarios, the performance and GPU support may vary. You can use the following guidelines to help you choose the appropriate option\n\nRun Ollama in a container if you're on Linux, and using a native installation of the Docker Engine, or Windows 10/11, and using Docker Desktop, you have a CUDA-supported GPU, and your system has at least 8 GB of RAM. Run Ollama outside of a container if you're on an Apple silicon Mac. Use OpenAI if the previous two scenarios don't apply to you.\n\nChoose one of the following options for your LLM service.\n\nWhen running Ollama in a container, you should have a CUDA-supported GPU. While you can run Ollama in a container without a supported GPU, the performance may not be acceptable. Only Linux and Windows 11 support GPU access to containers.\n\nTo run Ollama in a container and provide GPU access\n\nInstall the prerequisites. For Docker Engine on Linux, install the NVIDIA Container Toolkit. For Docker Desktop on Windows 10/11, install the latest NVIDIA driver and make sure you are using the WSL2 backend Add the Ollama service and a volume in your compose.yaml. The following is the updated compose.yaml\n\nBounded code example (external data; do not execute automatically):\n```yamlhl_lines24-38\n   services:\n     server:\n       build:\n         context: .\n       ports:\n         - 8000:8000\n       env_file:\n         - .env\n       depends_on:\n         database:\n           condition: service_healthy\n     database:\n       image: neo4j:5.11\n       ports:\n         - \"7474:7474\"\n         - \"7687:7687\"\n       environment:\n         - NEO4J_AUTH=${NEO4J_USERNAME}/${NEO4J_PASSWORD}\n       healthcheck:\n         test:\n           [\n             \"CMD-SHELL\",\n             \"wget --no-verbose --tries=1 --spider localhost:7474 || exit 1\",\n           ]\n         interval: 5s\n         timeout: 3s\n         retries: 5\n     ollama:\n       image: ollama/ollama:latest\n       ports:\n         - \"11434:11434\"\n       volumes:\n         - ollama_volume:/root/.ollama\n       deploy:\n         resources:\n           reservations:\n             devices:\n               - driver: nvidia\n                 count: all\n``` …\n\nAttribution: Adapted from Docker Documentation under Apache-2.0.
