All NVIDIA Merlin components are available as open source projects. However, a more convenient way to make use of these components is by using our Merlin NGC containers. We have created Docker containers for NVIDIA Merlin that are hosted on NGC.
Containers allow you to package your software application, libraries, dependencies, and runtime compilers in a self-contained environment. These containers can be pulled and launched right out of the box. You can clone and adjust these containers if necessary.
The following table provides a list of Dockerfiles that you can use to build the corresponding Docker container:
