Concepts

Seven mental models that show up across every Vantage product. Read these once and the rest of the docs make more sense.

• Workspaces: Your team's slice of the cluster (quota, RBAC, cost envelope).
• Jobs and pipelines: Finite computational work and the DAGs that orchestrate it.
• Compute and clusters: Where workloads physically run; profiles, providers, and regions.
• Teams and IAM: How permissions, ownership, and collaboration work.
• Slurm vs. Kubernetes: When to use scheduler-driven HPC workloads versus cloud-native orchestration.
• Why Teams and IAM: The reasoning behind separating collaboration boundaries from access control.
• Workbench ML Stack: How sessions, training, models, endpoints, and observability fit together.
