Setup
Get started with Embedl Hub.
Create an Embedl Hub account
To get started with Embedl Hub, you’ll first need to create a free account. After you’ve signed up, we invite you to join our Slack community. Although joining the community isn’t required, we’d love to meet you and learn what excites you about efficient edge AI.
Install the Python library
With the Embedl Hub Python library, you can quantize, compile, and profile models on real edge devices in the cloud. The library logs metrics and parameters, allowing you to analyze your results on the Embedl Hub website and to reproduce them later.
The simplest way to install the library is through pip
:
pip install embedl-hub
Configure an API key
You will need to configure an API key to authenticate yourself using the Embedl
Hub Python library. Create an API key in the Personal API keys section of your profile page. Copy your newly created key, and load it into your context
by running embedl-hub auth
:
embedl-hub auth --api-key <your-key>
Alternatively, you can store the API key as an environment variable in your terminal:
export EMBEDL_HUB_API_KEY=<your-key>
Keep the key secret. Anyone with access to it will be able to read and write to your Embedl Hub projects.
Set up a remote hardware cloud
Embedl Hub enables you to evaluate your models on real edge AI devices without needing physical access to the devices. Follow the cloud-specific setup instructions to use remote devices:
