Deployments#

VSS can be deployed in several ways depending on how quickly you want to get started and how much control you need over the configuration. This page summarizes the available options, from the fastest quickstart script to fully customizable Docker Compose and Helm Chart deployments.

Quickstart Script#

The fastest way to get started is the quickstart script documented in the Agent Workflows section. The Quickstart deploys a basic vision agent in minutes, and the other agent workflows build on it with additional capabilities (video summarization, search, alerts). This is the recommended starting point, but it offers limited customization compared to the Docker Compose and Helm Chart options below.

Other Deployment Options#

  • Brev Launchable - A preconfigured, fully optimized NVIDIA Brev compute and software environment that uses the Docker Compose method to stand up the blueprint with minimal setup.

  • Edge Deployment - Deploy the base vision agent on edge platforms (DGX Spark, IGX Thor, AGX Thor) using edge-optimized Nemotron LLMs.

  • Helm Deployment - Deploy VSS developer profiles on Kubernetes using Helm, the fully customizable alternative to Docker Compose for production and multi-node clusters.

  • Secure Deployment - A network-segmentation recipe to follow before exposing VSS in environments where untrusted users, services, or networks may be present.
