Overview
DigitalOcean Gradient AI provides managed infrastructure for building and deploying AI agents. Use Agentic Cloud for end-to-end agent workflows and the AI Platform for GPU-powered agent deployment.
Gradient AI Agentic Cloud
- Build, train, and deploy AI agents on managed infrastructure.
- Use managed resources to run agent workloads without manual GPU orchestration.
Gradient AI Platform
- Use GPU-powered infrastructure for AI agents and inference.
- Combine foundation models with knowledge bases.
- Configure agent routes to direct traffic and workflows.
Agent Workflow
- Select the target model and compute profile.
- Prepare datasets and knowledge bases.
- Define agent routes and inference behavior.
- Deploy agents and observe runtime metrics.
Integration Considerations
- Use object or block storage for datasets and artifacts.
- Align deployment with VPC and access controls.
- Track costs and usage in projects.
Complementary Skills
When using this skill, consider these related skills (if deployed):
- digitalocean-storage: Spaces, Volumes, and NFS for datasets.
- digitalocean-compute: GPU Droplets or Kubernetes for adjacent workloads.
- digitalocean-management: Monitoring and project organization.
Note: Complementary skills are optional. This skill is fully functional without them.
