# LazyCloud

> Run Python functions, serve APIs, and manage remote containers with LazyCloud.

- [Introduction](https://docs.lazycloud.dev/index.md): Infrastructure for agentic engineering. Building with agents is fast, and deploying with LazyCloud is too.
- [Quickstart](https://docs.lazycloud.dev/getting-started/quickstart.md): Develop a function locally, test it in the cloud, then deploy an HTTP endpoint and call it.
- [Installation](https://docs.lazycloud.dev/getting-started/installation.md): The global CLI, the SDK in a project, upgrades, and where sign-in state lives.
- [Apps and workloads](https://docs.lazycloud.dev/concepts/apps.md): The kinds of workload you can run, and how an app deploys, prunes, and exports them as one unit.
- [Develop, test, deploy](https://docs.lazycloud.dev/concepts/workflow.md): Three stages for the same code, what each one costs, and where a call goes at each stage.
- [Functions](https://docs.lazycloud.dev/concepts/functions.md): Python that runs in a remote container and returns its result, one call at a time or fanned out over a batch.
- [Schedules](https://docs.lazycloud.dev/concepts/schedules.md): A deployed function with a cron expression, run at set times in UTC.
- [Endpoints, ASGI, and realtime](https://docs.lazycloud.dev/concepts/endpoints.md): HTTPS and WebSocket services in Python, each with a stable URL and bearer-token auth by default.
- [Pods](https://docs.lazycloud.dev/concepts/pods.md): A container command, such as a model server, that you deploy under an app and scale by hand.
- [Sandboxes](https://docs.lazycloud.dev/concepts/sandboxes.md): Remote containers your code creates on demand, with process control, a filesystem API, ports, snapshots, and optional Docker.
- [Images](https://docs.lazycloud.dev/concepts/images.md): Build a workload's container from Python: packages, system tools, a project's lockfile, or an existing registry image.
- [Resources and options](https://docs.lazycloud.dev/concepts/resources.md): Size a container with CPU, memory, disk, and GPUs, choose capacity and placement, and look up every decorator option and default.
- [Scaling and concurrency](https://docs.lazycloud.dev/concepts/scaling.md): Concurrency, autoscaling, idle windows, and queue limits, with sizing patterns for batch jobs, GPU models, and APIs.
- [Volumes and cloud buckets](https://docs.lazycloud.dev/concepts/volumes.md): Files that outlive a container, shared by name across a workspace, and S3-compatible buckets you mount.
- [Secrets](https://docs.lazycloud.dev/concepts/secrets.md): Name the credentials a workload needs in code, keep their values in the workspace, and receive them as environment variables.
- [Queues and maps](https://docs.lazycloud.dev/concepts/queues-maps.md): Shared state for coordinating work across containers.
- [Artifacts](https://docs.lazycloud.dev/concepts/artifacts.md): Files a task produces, kept after the container stops for download or sharing through expiring public URLs.
- [Tasks and logs](https://docs.lazycloud.dev/concepts/tasks-and-logs.md): Follow a call live, look it up later by ID, see why it is waiting, or react to it from your own code.
- [Use the dashboard](https://docs.lazycloud.dev/platform/dashboard.md): Find run results, test an API, manage stored files, and check your spending.
- [CLI overview](https://docs.lazycloud.dev/cli/overview.md): The lazycloud command: global flags, handler references, and command groups.
- [deploy, run, serve, shell, dev](https://docs.lazycloud.dev/cli/deploy-and-run.md): Deploy apps, call a function once, run a live preview, and open remote shells.
- [task and logs](https://docs.lazycloud.dev/cli/tasks-and-logs.md): Revisit a run, retrieve background results, or investigate a failed task.
- [app, deployment, container](https://docs.lazycloud.dev/cli/deployments-and-containers.md): Manage deployed apps, deployments, and running containers.
- [volume, file commands, and secret](https://docs.lazycloud.dev/cli/storage.md): Volumes, files, secrets, and artifacts from a terminal.
- [compute, cloud, machine, domain](https://docs.lazycloud.dev/cli/compute.md): Inspect compute, connect an AWS account, join your own machines, and register custom domains.
- [login, workspace, profile, token](https://docs.lazycloud.dev/cli/auth.md): Sign the CLI in, choose a workspace, and manage stored credentials.
- [example](https://docs.lazycloud.dev/cli/scaffolding.md): List and download standalone uv projects bundled with the SDK.
- [Examples](https://docs.lazycloud.dev/examples/index.md): Complete applications built on the LazyCloud SDK: GPU inference, model training, an ASGI service, a coding agent, and parallel data processing.
- [OpenAI-compatible LLM service](https://docs.lazycloud.dev/examples/openai-compatible-llm.md): Serve a small instruction model from an authenticated vLLM pod on one GPU.
- [Train a YOLO object detector](https://docs.lazycloud.dev/examples/train-yolo-object-detector.md): Train YOLO26n on an L4, keep the checkpoint in a volume, and predict from a second function.
- [Extract text from PDFs and images](https://docs.lazycloud.dev/examples/document-processing-asgi.md): Deploy a browser upload app that runs OCR in the background and returns extracted text.
- [Run a coding agent in a sandbox](https://docs.lazycloud.dev/examples/sandboxed-coding-agent.md): Keep model credentials and network access away from the code an agent writes.
- [Process Parquet files in parallel](https://docs.lazycloud.dev/examples/parallel-parquet-s3.md): Remote Python over the Parquet files in your own S3 bucket, mounted as a directory.
- [Sign-in and tokens](https://docs.lazycloud.dev/platform/auth.md): Browser sign-in for your own work, access tokens for CI and scripts, and profiles for keeping several sign-ins.
- [Plans and limits](https://docs.lazycloud.dev/platform/plans.md): What your plan includes, what usage costs, and what happens when you reach a limit.
- [Compute](https://docs.lazycloud.dev/platform/compute.md): Where workloads run: LazyCloud compute, your own AWS account, or machines you join.
- [Custom domains](https://docs.lazycloud.dev/platform/domains.md): Serve an endpoint or ASGI app from a hostname you own.
