+# Kubernetes Deployment Guide
+
+Instead of starting the Llama Stack and vLLM servers locally. We can deploy them in a Kubernetes cluster. In this guide, we'll use a local [Kind](https://kind.sigs.k8s.io/) cluster and a vLLM inference service in the same cluster for demonstration purposes.
+
+First, create a local Kubernetes cluster via Kind:
+
+```bash
+kind create cluster --image kindest/node:v1.32.0 --name llama-stack-test
+```
+
+Start vLLM server as a Kubernetes Pod and Service:
+
+```bash
+cat <<EOF |kubectl apply -f -
+apiVersion: v1
+kind: PersistentVolumeClaim
+metadata:
+  name: vllm-models
+spec:
+  accessModes:
+    - ReadWriteOnce
+  volumeMode: Filesystem
+  resources:
+    requests:
+      storage: 50Gi
+---
+apiVersion: v1
+kind: Secret
+metadata:
+  name: hf-token-secret
+type: Opaque
+data:
+  token: $(HF_TOKEN)
+---
+apiVersion: apps/v1
+kind: Deployment
+metadata:
+  name: vllm-server
+spec:
+  replicas: 1
+  selector:
+    matchLabels:
+      app.kubernetes.io/name: vllm
+  template:
+    metadata:
+      labels:
+        app.kubernetes.io/name: vllm
+    spec:
+      containers:
+      - name: llama-stack
+        image: $(VLLM_IMAGE)
+        command:
+            - bash
+            - -c
+            - |
+              MODEL="meta-llama/Llama-3.2-1B-Instruct"
+              MODEL_PATH=/app/model/$(basename $MODEL)
+              huggingface-cli login --token $HUGGING_FACE_HUB_TOKEN
+              huggingface-cli download $MODEL --local-dir $MODEL_PATH --cache-dir $MODEL_PATH
+              python3 -m vllm.entrypoints.openai.api_server --model $MODEL_PATH --served-model-name $MODEL --port 8000
+        ports:
+          - containerPort: 8000
+        volumeMounts:
+          - name: llama-storage
+            mountPath: /app/model
+        env:
+          - name: HUGGING_FACE_HUB_TOKEN
+            valueFrom:
+              secretKeyRef:
+                name: hf-token-secret
+                key: token
+      volumes:
+      - name: llama-storage
+        persistentVolumeClaim:
+          claimName: vllm-models
+---
+apiVersion: v1
+kind: Service
+metadata:
+  name: vllm-server
+spec:
+  selector:
+    app.kubernetes.io/name: vllm
+  ports:
+  - protocol: TCP
+    port: 8000
+    targetPort: 8000
+  type: ClusterIP
+EOF
+```
+
+We can verify that the vLLM server has started successfully via the logs (this might take a couple of minutes to download the model):
+
+```bash
+$ kubectl logs -l app.kubernetes.io/name=vllm
+...
+INFO:     Started server process [1]
+INFO:     Waiting for application startup.
+INFO:     Application startup complete.
+INFO:     Uvicorn running on http://0.0.0.0:8000 (Press CTRL+C to quit)
+```
+
+Then we can modify the Llama Stack run configuration YAML with the following inference provider:
+
+```yaml
+providers:
+  inference:
+  - provider_id: vllm
+    provider_type: remote::vllm
+    config:
+      url: http://vllm-server.default.svc.cluster.local:8000/v1
+      max_tokens: 4096
+      api_token: fake
+```
+
+Once we have defined the run configuration for Llama Stack, we can build an image with that configuration and the server source code:
+
+```bash
+cat >/tmp/test-vllm-llama-stack/Containerfile.llama-stack-run-k8s <<EOF
+FROM distribution-myenv:dev
+
+RUN apt-get update && apt-get install -y git
+RUN git clone https://github.com/meta-llama/llama-stack.git /app/llama-stack-source
+
+ADD ./vllm-llama-stack-run-k8s.yaml /app/config.yaml
+EOF
+podman build -f /tmp/test-vllm-llama-stack/Containerfile.llama-stack-run-k8s -t llama-stack-run-k8s /tmp/test-vllm-llama-stack
+```
+
+
+We can then start the Llama Stack server by deploying a Kubernetes Pod and Service:
+
+```bash
+cat <<EOF |kubectl apply -f -
+apiVersion: v1
+kind: PersistentVolumeClaim
+metadata:
+  name: llama-pvc
+spec:
+  accessModes:
+    - ReadWriteOnce

+    requests:
+      storage: 1Gi

+apiVersion: apps/v1
+kind: Deployment

+  template:
+    metadata:
+      labels:
+        app.kubernetes.io/name: llama-stack
+    spec:
+      containers:
+      - name: llama-stack
+        image: localhost/llama-stack-run-k8s:latest
+        imagePullPolicy: IfNotPresent
+        command: ["python", "-m", "llama_stack.distribution.server.server", "--yaml-config", "/app/config.yaml"]
+        ports:
+          - containerPort: 5000
+        volumeMounts:
+          - name: llama-storage
+            mountPath: /root/.llama
+      volumes:
+      - name: llama-storage
+        persistentVolumeClaim:
+          claimName: llama-pvc
+---
+apiVersion: v1
+kind: Service
+metadata:
+  name: llama-stack-service
+spec:
+  selector:
+    app.kubernetes.io/name: llama-stack
+  ports:
+  - protocol: TCP
+    port: 5000
+    targetPort: 5000
+  type: ClusterIP
+EOF
+```
+
+We can check that the LlamaStack server has started:
+
+```bash
+$ kubectl logs -l app.kubernetes.io/name=llama-stack
+...
+INFO:     Started server process [1]
+INFO:     Waiting for application startup.
+INFO:     ASGI 'lifespan' protocol appears unsupported.
+INFO:     Application startup complete.
+INFO:     Uvicorn running on http://['::', '0.0.0.0']:5000 (Press CTRL+C to quit)
+```
+
+Finally, we forward the Kubernetes service to a local port and test some inference requests against it via the Llama Stack Client:
+
+```bash
+kubectl port-forward service/llama-stack-service 5000:5000
+llama-stack-client --endpoint http://localhost:5000 inference chat-completion --message "hello, what model are you?"
+```
