Merlin Containers

Merlin and the Merlin component libraries are available in Docker containers from the NVIDIA GPU Cloud (NCG) catalog. Access the catalog of containers at http://ngc.nvidia.com/catalog/containers.

Training Containers

The following table identifies the container names, catalog URL, and key Merlin components.

Training Container	NGC Catalog URL	Key Merlin Components
merlin-training	https://catalog.ngc.nvidia.com/orgs/nvidia/teams/merlin/containers/merlin-training	NVTabular and HugeCTR
merlin-tensorflow-training	https://catalog.ngc.nvidia.com/orgs/nvidia/teams/merlin/containers/merlin-tensorflow-training	NVTabular, TensorFlow, and HugeCTR Tensorflow Embedding plugin
merlin-pytorch-training	https://catalog.ngc.nvidia.com/orgs/nvidia/teams/merlin/containers/merlin-pytorch-training	NVTabular and PyTorch

To use these containers, you must install the NVIDIA Container Toolkit to provide GPU support for Docker. You can use the NGC links referenced in the preceding table for more information about how to launch and run these containers.
