The steps below will guide you through setup of a Tator deployment. By the end you should be able to open Tator in your browser. We will use DuckDNS to create a domain for the app. You may set the IP address for this domain to a local address or something accessible via the web. Tator only works over https, so we will use LetsEncrypt for getting an SSL certificate. For hardware, you can use a single virtual machine, a single node, or a cluster of nodes in a local area network. The machines must be running Ubuntu 18.04 LTS.
We recommend going through the full tutorial at least once using a single node or VM. After that, feel free to skip some steps if you already have a domain, SSL certificate, NFS server, or Kubernetes cluster. The full tutorial assumes you are starting with just bare metal.
