Containers for GenAI & Agentic AI
The Open-Source Way
Gourav Shah · 2 Full Days · Intermediate → Advanced · Hands-on
01
One real system — built one step per module
Ship one real block per module — never tools in isolation.
02
Container-native, not Docker-native
Docker Desktop now costs money for large orgs — we use the open standard.
03
What you'll be able to do
By the end of two days — as a DevOps or app/AI developer.
04
Two connected use cases
A clean GenAI app and a real agentic system — connected at the tool boundary.
05
The intelligence progression
Each AI pattern arrives exactly when it earns its keep.
06
The build ladder — one step per module
Each module adds exactly one rung to the same growing system.
07
The one constraint that shapes every lab
Apple Silicon can't pass its GPU into a container — so we wire around it.
08
One contract: the OpenAI-compatible endpoint
A wall socket: swap the power station, the appliance never notices.
09
It all runs on a 16 GB laptop
A non-negotiable design rule — engineered lean on purpose, not by luck.
10
The open-source tool map — one tool per job
A tidy stack: for each job, the tool we actually use in the labs.
11
Write the stack — don't paste it
One growing compose.yaml, hand-authored service by service.
12
Program at a glance
Two days, two halves — serve & package, then reason & ship.
13
What to bring
All free and open source — a laptop and a bit of container fluency.
14
LET'S BUILD
Build it once. Run it anywhere.
Container-native, not Docker-native — the open standard is the through-line.
