+# Flash: Serverless computing for AI workloads
+
+Runpod Flash is a Python SDK that streamlines the development and deployment of AI workflows on Runpod's [Serverless infrastructure](http://docs.runpod.io/serverless/overview). Write Python functions locally, and Flash handles the infrastructure, provisioning GPUs and CPUs, managing dependencies, and transferring data, allowing you to focus on building AI applications.
+
+You can find a repository of prebuilt Flash examples at [runpod/flash-examples](https://github.com/runpod/flash-examples).
+
+> [!Note]
+> **New feature - Consolidated template management:** `PodTemplate` overrides now seamlessly integrate with `ServerlessResource` defaults, providing more consistent resource configuration and reducing deployment complexity.

+
+## Overview
+
+There are two basic modes for using Flash. You can:
+
+- Build and run standalone Python scripts using the `@remote` decorator.
+- Create Flash API endpoints with FastAPI (using the same script syntax).
+
+Follow the steps in the next section to install Flash and create your first script before learning how to [create Flash API endpoints](#create-flash-api-endpoints).
+
+To learn more about how Flash works, see [Key concepts](#key-concepts).
+
+## Get started
+
+Before you can use Flash, you'll need:
+
+- Python 3.9 (or higher) installed on your local machine.
+- A Runpod account with API key ([sign up here](https://runpod.io/console)).
+- Basic knowledge of Python and async programming.
+
+### Step 1: Install Flash
+
+```bash
+pip install tetra_rp
+```
+
+### Step 2: Set your API key
+
+Generate an API key from the [Runpod account settings](https://docs.runpod.io/get-started/api-keys) page and set it as an environment variable:
+
+```bash
+export RUNPOD_API_KEY=[YOUR_API_KEY]
+```
+
+Or save it in a `.env` file in your project directory:
+
+```bash
+echo "RUNPOD_API_KEY=[YOUR_API_KEY]" > .env
+```
+
+### Step 3: Create your first Flash function
+
+Add the following code to a new Python file:
+
+```python
+import asyncio
+from tetra_rp import remote, LiveServerless
+from dotenv import load_dotenv
+
+# Uncomment if using a .env file
+# load_dotenv()
+
+# Configure GPU resources
+gpu_config = LiveServerless(name="flash-quickstart")
+
+@remote(
+    resource_config=gpu_config,
+    dependencies=["torch", "numpy"]
+)
+def gpu_compute(data):
+    import torch
+    import numpy as np
+    
+    # This runs on a GPU in Runpod's cloud
+    tensor = torch.tensor(data, device="cuda")
+    result = tensor.sum().item()
+    
+    return {
+        "result": result,
+        "device": torch.cuda.get_device_name(0)
+    }
+
+async def main():
+    # This runs locally
+    result = await gpu_compute([1, 2, 3, 4, 5])
+    print(f"Sum: {result['result']}")
+    print(f"Computed on: {result['device']}")
+
+if __name__ == "__main__":
+    asyncio.run(main())
+```
+
+Run the example:
+
+```bash
+python your_script.py
+```
+
+The first time you run the script, it will take significantly longer to process than successive runs (about one minute for first run vs. one second for future runs), as your endpoint must be initialized.
+
+When it's finished, you should see output similar to this:
+
+```bash

+
+## Create Flash API endpoints
+
+> [!Note]
+> **Flash API endpoints are currently only available for local testing:** Using `flash run` will start the API server on your local machine. Future updates will add the ability to build and deploy API servers for production deployments.
+
+You can use Flash to deploy and serve API endpoints that compute responses using GPU and CPU Serverless workers. These endpoints will run scripts using the same Python remote decorators [demonstrated above](#get-started)
+
+### Step 1: Initialize a new project
+
+Use the `flash init` command to generate a structured project template with a preconfigured FastAPI application entry point.
+
+Run this command to initialize a new project directory:
+
+```bash
+flash init my_project
+```
+
+You can also initialize your current directory:
+```
+flash init
+```
+
+### Step 2: Explore the project template
+
+This is the structure of the project template created by `flash init`:
+
+```txt
+my_project/
+├── main.py                    # FastAPI application entry point
+├── workers/
+│   ├── gpu/                   # GPU worker example
+│   │   ├── __init__.py        # FastAPI router
+│   │   └── endpoint.py        # GPU script @remote decorated function
+│   └── cpu/                   # CPU worker example
+│       ├── __init__.py        # FastAPI router
+│       └── endpoint.py        # CPU script with @remote decorated function
+├── .env               # Environment variable template
+├── .gitignore                 # Git ignore patterns
+├── .flashignore               # Flash deployment ignore patterns
+├── requirements.txt           # Python dependencies
+└── README.md                  # Project documentation
+```
+
+This template includes:
+
+- A FastAPI application entry point and routers.
+- Templates for Python dependencies, `.env`, `.gitignore`, etc.
+- Flash scripts (`endpoint.py`) for both GPU and CPU workers, which include:
+    - Pre-configured worker scaling limits using the `LiveServerless()` object.
+    - A `@remote` decorated function that returns a response from a worker.
+
+When you start the FastAPI server, it creates API endpoints at `/gpu/hello` and `/cpu/hello`, which call the remote function described in their respective `endpoint.py` files.
+
+### Step 3: Install Python dependencies
+
+After initializing the project, navigate into the project directory:
+
+```bash
+cd my_project
+```
+
+Install required dependencies:
+
+```bash
+pip install -r requirements.txt
+```
+
+### Step 4: Configure your API key
+
+Open the `.env` template file in a text editor and add your [Runpod API key](https://docs.runpod.io/get-started/api-keys):
+
+```bash
+# Use your text editor of choice, e.g.
+cursor .env
+```
+
+Remove the `#` symbol from the beginning of the `RUNPOD_API_KEY` line and replace `your_api_key_here` with your actual Runpod API key:
+
+```txt
+# RUNPOD_API_KEY=your_api_key_here
+# PORT=80
+# LOG_LEVEL=INFO
+```
+
+Save the file and close it.
+
+### Step 5: Start the local API server
+
+Use `flash run` to start the API server:
+
+```bash
+flash run
+```
+
+Open a new terminal tab or window and test your GPU API using cURL:
+
+```bash
+curl -X POST http://localhost:8888/gpu/hello \
+    -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
+    -d '{"message": "Hello from the GPU!"}'
+```
+
+If you switch back to the terminal tab where you used `flash run`, you'll see the details of the job's progress.
+
+### Step 6: Open the API explorer
+
+Besides starting the API server, `flash run` also starts an interactive API explorer. Point your web browser at [http://localhost:8888/docs](http://localhost:8888/docs) to explore the API.
+
+To run remote functions in the explorer:
+
+1. Expand one of the functions under **GPU Workers** or **CPU Workers**.
+2. Click **Try it out** and then **Execute**
+
+You'll get a response from your workers right in the explorer.
+
+### Step 7: Customize your API
+
+To customize your API endpoint and functionality:
+
+1. Add/edit remote functions in your `endpoint.py` files.
+2. Test the scripts individually by running `python endpoint.py`.
+3. Configure your FastAPI routers by editing the `__init__.py` files.
+4. Add any new endpoints to your `main.py` file.
+
+## Key concepts
+
+### Remote functions
+
+The Flash `@remote` decorator marks functions for execution on Runpod's infrastructure. Everything inside the decorated function runs remotely, while code outside runs locally.
+
+```python
+@remote(resource_config=config, dependencies=["pandas"])
+def process_data(data):
+    # This code runs remotely
+    import pandas as pd
+    df = pd.DataFrame(data)
+    return df.describe().to_dict()
+
+async def main():
+    # This code runs locally
+    result = await process_data(my_data)
+```
+
+### Resource configuration
+
+Flash provides fine-grained control over hardware allocation through configuration objects:
+
+```python
+from tetra_rp import LiveServerless, GpuGroup, CpuInstanceType, PodTemplate
+
+# GPU configuration
+gpu_config = LiveServerless(
+    name="ml-inference",
+    gpus=[GpuGroup.AMPERE_80],  # A100 80GB
+    workersMax=5,
+    template=PodTemplate(containerDiskInGb=100)  # Extra disk space
+)
+
+# CPU configuration
+cpu_config = LiveServerless(
+    name="data-processor",
+    instanceIds=[CpuInstanceType.CPU5C_4_16],  # 4 vCPU, 16GB RAM
+    workersMax=3
+)
+```
+
+### Dependency management
+
+Specify Python packages in the decorator, and Flash installs them automatically:
+
+```python
+@remote(
+    resource_config=gpu_config,
+    dependencies=["transformers==4.36.0", "torch", "pillow"]
+)
+def generate_image(prompt):
+    # Import inside the function
+    from transformers import pipeline
+    import torch
+    from PIL import Image
+    
+    # Your code here
+```
+
+### Parallel execution
+
+Run multiple remote functions concurrently using Python's async capabilities:
+
+```python
+# Process multiple items in parallel
+results = await asyncio.gather(
+    process_item(item1),
+    process_item(item2),
+    process_item(item3)
+)
+```
+
+## How it works
+
+Flash orchestrates workflow execution through a sophisticated multi-step process:
+
+1. **Function identification**: The `@remote` decorator marks functions for remote execution, enabling Flash to distinguish between local and remote operations.
+2. **Dependency analysis**: Flash automatically analyzes function dependencies to construct an optimal execution order, ensuring data flows correctly between sequential and parallel operations.
+3. **Resource provisioning and execution**: For each remote function, Flash:
+   - Dynamically provisions endpoint and worker resources on Runpod's infrastructure.
+   - Serializes and securely transfers input data to the remote worker.
+   - Executes the function on the remote infrastructure with the specified GPU or CPU resources.
+   - Returns results to your local environment for further processing.
+4. **Data orchestration**: Results flow seamlessly between functions according to your local Python code structure, maintaining the same programming model whether functions run locally or remotely.
+
+
+## Advanced features
+
+### Custom Docker images
+
+`LiveServerless` resources use a fixed Docker image that's optimized for Flash runtime, and supports full remote code execution. For specialized environments that require a custom Docker image, use `ServerlessEndpoint` or `CpuServerlessEndpoint`:
+
+```python
+from tetra_rp import ServerlessEndpoint
+
+custom_gpu = ServerlessEndpoint(
+    name="custom-ml-env",
+    imageName="pytorch/pytorch:2.0.1-cuda11.7-cudnn8-runtime",
+    gpus=[GpuGroup.AMPERE_80]
+)
+```
+
+Unlike `LiveServerless`, these endpoints only support dictionary payloads in the form of `{"input": {...}}` (similar to a traditional [Serverless endpoint request](https://docs.runpod.io/serverless/endpoints/send-requests)), and cannot execute arbitrary Python functions remotely.
+
+### Persistent storage with network volumes
+
+Attach [network volumes](https://docs.runpod.io/storage/network-volumes) for persistent storage across workers and endpoints:
+
+```python
+config = LiveServerless(
+    name="model-server",
+    networkVolumeId="vol_abc123",  # Your volume ID
+    template=PodTemplate(containerDiskInGb=100)
+)
+```
+
+### Environment variables
+
+Pass configuration to remote functions:
+
+```python
+config = LiveServerless(
+    name="api-worker",
+    env={"HF_TOKEN": "your_token", "MODEL_ID": "gpt2"}
+)
+```
+

+## Workflow examples
+
+### Basic GPU workflow
+
+```python
+import asyncio
+from tetra_rp import remote, LiveServerless
+
+# Simple GPU configuration
+gpu_config = LiveServerless(name="example-gpu-server")
+
+@remote(
+    resource_config=gpu_config,
+    dependencies=["torch", "numpy"]
+)
+def gpu_compute(data):
+    import torch
+    import numpy as np
+    
+    # Convert to tensor and perform computation on GPU
+    tensor = torch.tensor(data, device="cuda")
+    result = tensor.sum().item()
+    
+    # Get GPU info
+    gpu_info = torch.cuda.get_device_properties(0)
+    
+    return {
+        "result": result,
+        "gpu_name": gpu_info.name,
+        "cuda_version": torch.version.cuda
+    }
+
+async def main():
+    result = await gpu_compute([1, 2, 3, 4, 5])
+    print(f"Result: {result['result']}")
+    print(f"Computed on: {result['gpu_name']} with CUDA {result['cuda_version']}")
+
+if __name__ == "__main__":
+    asyncio.run(main())
+```
+
+### Advanced GPU workflow with template configuration
+
+```python
+import asyncio
+from tetra_rp import remote, LiveServerless, GpuGroup, PodTemplate
+import base64
+
+# Advanced GPU configuration with consolidated template overrides
+sd_config = LiveServerless(
+    gpus=[GpuGroup.AMPERE_80],  # A100 80GB GPUs
+    name="example_image_gen_server",
+    template=PodTemplate(containerDiskInGb=100),  # Large disk for models
+    workersMax=3,
+    idleTimeout=10
+)

+### More examples
+
+You can find many more examples in the [flash-examples repository](https://github.com/runpod/flash-examples).
+
+## Use cases
+
+Flash is well-suited for a diverse range of AI and data processing workloads:
+
+- **Multi-modal AI pipelines**: Orchestrate unified workflows combining text, image, and audio models with GPU acceleration.
+- **Distributed model training**: Scale training operations across multiple GPU workers for faster model development.
+- **AI research experimentation**: Rapidly prototype and test complex model combinations without infrastructure overhead.
+- **Production inference systems**: Deploy sophisticated multi-stage inference pipelines for real-world applications.
+- **Data processing workflows**: Efficiently process large datasets using CPU workers for general computation and GPU workers for accelerated tasks.
+- **Hybrid GPU/CPU workflows**: Optimize cost and performance by combining CPU preprocessing with GPU inference.
+
+## Limitations
+
+- Serverless deployments using Flash are currently restricted to the `EU-RO-1` datacenter.
+- Flash is designed primarily for local development and live-testing workflows.
+- While Flash supports provisioning traditional Serverless endpoints (non-Live endpoints), the interface for interacting with these resources will change in upcoming releases. For now, focus on using `LiveServerless` for the most stable development experience, as it provides full remote code execution without requiring custom Docker images.
+- As you work through the Flash examples repository, you'll accumulate multiple endpoints in your Runpod account. These endpoints persist until manually deleted through the Runpod console. A `flash undeploy` command is in development to streamline cleanup, but for now, regular manual deletion of unused endpoints is recommended to avoid unnecessary charges.
+- Finally, be aware of your account's maximum worker capacity limits. Flash can rapidly scale workers across multiple endpoints, and you may hit capacity constraints faster than with traditional deployment patterns. If you find yourself consistently reaching worker limits, contact Runpod support to increase your account's capacity allocation.
+

+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+### Authentication errors
+
+Verify your API key is set correctly:
+
+```bash
+echo $RUNPOD_API_KEY  # Should show your key
+```
+
+### Import errors in remote functions
+
+Remember to import packages inside remote functions:
+
+```python
+@remote(dependencies=["requests"])
+def fetch_data(url):
+    import requests  # Import here, not at top of file
+    return requests.get(url).json()
+```
+
+### Performance optimization
+
+- Set `workersMin=1` to keep workers warm and avoid cold starts.
+- Use `idleTimeout` to balance cost and responsiveness.
+- Choose appropriate GPU types for your workload.
