This document describes how to use the NVIDIA NGC Private Registry. This guide assumes the user is familiar with Linux and Docker and has access to an NVIDIA GPU-based computing solution, such as an NVIDIA DGX system or NVIDIA-Certified system configured for internet access and prepared for running NVIDIA GPU-accelerated Docker containers.

We all are used to working collaboratively using tools such as Slack or Microsoft Teams, to share our content and ensure that our colleagues are all aligned. The primary goal of NGC Private Registry is to enable sharing of artificial intelligence (AI) content such as containers, models, Helm charts within your organization. This feature empowers key stakeholders in your organization to collaborate without reinventing the wheel, increasing productivity, saving valuable resources, and bringing your products to market faster.

When sharing content across a large organization, it is essential to ensure that you can manage the users. The comprehensive user and team management in an NGC Private Registry allow administrators to control access to content stored in the registry.

With the power of the cloud, the content stored in the NGC Private Registry is always available with redundant storage that can be accessed from anywhere, making it extremely easy to get to your content.

After purchasing a support entitlement with NVIDIA, the end-customer will receive an NVIDIA Entitlement Certificate via email. The email will include all the pertinent instructions to register for technical support.

Before using NGC, you must have an NGC account created by your organization owner or other administrators in your organization. You need an email address to set up an account. Choose one of the following processes depending on your situation for activating your NGC account.

After NVIDIA or your organization administrator adds you to a new org or team within an organization, you will receive a welcome email that invites you to continue the activation and sign in process.

In the example, "Novi Sciences" is the owner of the newly-created organization. The steps below assume Novi is new to NGC and explain how to create a new NVIDIA account and sign in as org owner. If you already have an NVIDIA account managing other NGC orgs as org owner, click on Use alternate method to sign in with your existing NVIDIA account and access your new org. Take note of the following important information in the email.

This section describes joining an org or team that has been federated by your company to an external SSO/IdP authentication service and your email address domain requires NGC authentication against your company's single sign-on.

In the top menu bar, click your user account icon. Then, select your org menu to expand the view to other available orgs. If you manage many orgs, you can use the search field to find the specific org you want to select. Select the desired org by clicking it once.

The Enterprise Catalog, which housed software supported by NVIDIA AI Enterprise (NVAIE), is now integrated into the NGC Catalog (public), providing users with a cohesive and comprehensive platform. NVAIE customers, with their active NVAIE entitlement, can access software and features exclusive to them from within the NGC Catalog.

The NGC Catalog aims to provide a centralized catalog of publicly available entities (e.g., containers, models, resources) alongside those that are part of products called entitled entities. This approach enables users to search and filter seamlessly across all entities, for a more efficient and improved user experience.

Users can view and download entitled entities by signing in to NGC. The NGC CLI is also available for downloading software using the API key. Access to all granted products will remain even when switching org/team context. Unauthenticated users will see a prompt to log in or gain access to the product when attempting to download gated features or entitled entities.

Publishers can publish and map entities to products. Access to entities is restricted by entity type, entity access type, user subscriptions, and roles, enhancing security and control. For entitled entities, guest users are encouraged to convert to registered or subscribed status to access product-specific entities.

Over the last few years there has been a dramatic rise in the use of software containers for simplifying deployment of data center applications at scale. Containers encapsulate an application along with its libraries and other dependencies to provide reproducible and reliable execution of applications and services without the overhead of a full virtual machine.

GPU support within Docker containers enables GPU-based applications that are portable across multiple machines in a similar way to how Docker enables CPU-based applications to be deployed across multiple machines.

A Docker container is a mechanism for bundling a Linux application with all of its libraries, data files, and environment variables so that the execution environment is always the same, on whatever Linux system it runs and between instances on the same host.

One of the many benefits to using containers is that you can install your application, dependencies and environment variables one time into the container image; rather than on each system you run on. In addition, the key benefits to using containers also include:

You can access the NGC container registry by running a Docker command from your client computer. You are not limited to using your NVIDIA DGX platform to access the NGC container registry. You can use any Linux computer with Internet access on which Docker is installed.
Before accessing the NGC container registry, ensure that the following prerequisites are met:

An alternate approach for enabling other users to run containers without giving them sudo privilege, and without having to type sudo before each docker command, is to add each user to the docker group, with the command:

While this approach is more convenient and commonly used, it is less secure because any user who can send commands to the docker engine can escalate privilege and run root level operations. If you choose to use this method, only add users to the docker group who you would trust with root privileges.

No container images are preloaded onto a DGX system. Instead, containers are available for download from the NGC container registry. NVIDIA has provided a number of containers for download from the NGC container registry. If your organization has provided you with access to any custom containers, you can download those as well.
Before loading an NGC container image, ensure that the following prerequisites are met:

You can upload custom images to the registry if you have write access to the registry space. Uploading a container image involves first tagging the image and then pushing the image to the registry space.

In the following examples, the user is a member of the Acme (mxa8oi8djw7m) organization and the Zoom team within the Acme organization. Refer to Joining an Org as Org Owner on how to find your Org name.

NGC Container Registry now allows users to leverage docker multi-architecture. It can support multiple architectures, which means that a single image may contain variants for different architectures like ARM, x86, Power and others; and sometimes for different operating systems, such as Windows.
Manifest Lists and Tags

NGC Container Registry now supports the manifest list schema now application/vnd.docker.distribution.manifest.list.v2+json providing the ability to assign multiple tags per image. For inspection of manifest list read instructions here.

Be sure the context is set appropriately for the resource you want to delete. For example, if you want to delete a model that you created in the team_A space, then be sure to set the context as --team team_A.

$ ngc registry chart remove nvidia/ngcdocstest Are you sure you would like to remove nvidia/ngcdocstest? [y/n]y Successfully removed chart version 'nvidia/ngcdocstest:0.1.0'. Successfully removed chart 'nvidia/ngcdocstest'.

The NGC API lets you specify information about your Helm chart. Use the NGC API Explorer page (URL: !/Artifacts/updateArtifactInOrgUsingPATCH). You can use the page to build the JSON file for use in a CURL command.

To remove Helm charts from your org or team, you must use the NGC API. Refer to !/Model/proxyDeleteUsingDELETE for a description of the relevant API.
To delete a Helm chart from an org space, issue the following:
