Install MMS

Prerequisites

  • Python: Required. Model Server for Apache MXNet (MMS) works with Python 2 or 3. When installing MMS, we recommend that you use a Python and Conda environment to avoid conflicts with your other Apache MXNet or Open Neural Network Exchange (ONNX) installations.

  • java 8: Required. MMS use java to serve HTTP requests. You must install java 8 (or later) and make sure java is on available in $PATH environment variable before installing MMS. If you have multiple java installed, you can use $JAVA_HOME environment vairable to control which java to use.

For ubuntu:

sudo apt-get install openjdk-8-jre-headless

For centos

sudo yum install java-1.8.0-openjdk

For Mac:

brew tap caskroom/versions
brew update
brew cask install java8

You can also download and install Oracle JDK manually if you have trouble with above commands.

  • MXNet: Recommended. MMS won't install mxnet by default. MXNet is required for most of examples in this project. MMS won't install mxnet engine by default, you can install mxnet-mkl or mxnet-cu90mkl based on your need. And you can also choose specific version of mxnet if you want.
pip install mxnet-mkl

or for GPU instance:

pip install mxnet-cu90-mkl

  • Curl: Optional. Curl is used in all of the examples. Install it with your preferred package manager.

  • Unzip: Optional. Unzip allows you to easily extract model files and inspect their content. If you choose to use it, associate it with .mar extensions.
