### Version Labels

- **main (ToT)** reflects the current development branch.
- Releases marked *(in progress)* or *(planned)* show target versions that may change before final release.

### Version Compatibility

- Backend versions listed are the only versions tested and supported for each release.
- TensorRT-LLM does not support Python 3.11; installation of the `ai-dynamo[trtllm]` wheel will fail on Python 3.11.

### CUDA and Driver Requirements

Dynamo container images include CUDA toolkit libraries. The host machine must have a compatible NVIDIA GPU driver installed.

Experimental CUDA 13 images are not published for all versions. Check [Release Artifacts](release-artifacts.md) for availability.

For detailed artifact versions and NGC links (including container images, Python wheels, Helm charts, and Rust crates), see the [Release Artifacts](release-artifacts.md) page.

#### CUDA Compatibility Resources

For detailed information on CUDA driver compatibility, forward compatibility, and troubleshooting:

- [CUDA Compatibility Overview](https://docs.nvidia.com/deploy/cuda-compatibility/)
- [Why CUDA Compatibility](https://docs.nvidia.com/deploy/cuda-compatibility/why-cuda-compatibility.html)
- [Minor Version Compatibility](https://docs.nvidia.com/deploy/cuda-compatibility/minor-version-compatibility.html)
- [Forward Compatibility](https://docs.nvidia.com/deploy/cuda-compatibility/forward-compatibility.html)
- [FAQ](https://docs.nvidia.com/deploy/cuda-compatibility/frequently-asked-questions.html)

For extended driver compatibility beyond the minimum versions listed above, consider using `cuda-compat` packages on the host. See [Forward Compatibility](https://docs.nvidia.com/deploy/cuda-compatibility/forward-compatibility.html) for details.

## Hardware Compatibility

| **CPU Architecture** | **Status**   |
| :------------------- | :----------- |
| **x86_64**           | Supported    |
| **ARM64**            | Supported    |

Dynamo provides multi-arch container images supporting both AMD64 (x86_64) and ARM64 architectures. See [Release Artifacts](release-artifacts.md) for available images.

### GPU Compatibility

If you are using a **GPU**, the following GPU models and architectures are supported:

| **GPU Architecture**                 | **Status** |
| :----------------------------------- | :--------- |
| **NVIDIA Blackwell Architecture**    | Supported  |
| **NVIDIA Hopper Architecture**       | Supported  |
| **NVIDIA Ada Lovelace Architecture** | Supported  |
| **NVIDIA Ampere Architecture**       | Supported  |

## Platform Architecture Compatibility

**Dynamo** is compatible with the following platforms:

| **Operating System** | **Version** | **Architecture** | **Status**   |
| :------------------- | :---------- | :--------------- | :----------- |
| **Ubuntu**           | 22.04       | x86_64           | Supported    |
| **Ubuntu**           | 24.04       | x86_64           | Supported    |
| **Ubuntu**           | 24.04       | ARM64            | Supported    |
| **CentOS Stream**    | 9           | x86_64           | Experimental |

Wheels are built using a manylinux_2_28-compatible environment and validated on CentOS Stream 9 and Ubuntu (22.04, 24.04). Compatibility with other Linux distributions is expected but not officially verified.

> [!Caution]
> KV Block Manager is supported only with Python 3.12. Python 3.12 support is currently limited to Ubuntu 24.04.

## Cloud Service Provider Compatibility

### AWS

| **Host Operating System** | **Version** | **Architecture** | **Status** |
| :------------------------ | :---------- | :--------------- | :--------- |
| **Amazon Linux**          | 2023        | x86_64           | Supported  |

> [!Caution]
> **AL2023 TensorRT-LLM Limitation:** There is a known issue with the TensorRT-LLM framework when running the AL2023 container locally with `docker run --network host ...` due to a [bug](https://github.com/mpi4py/mpi4py/discussions/491#discussioncomment-12660609) in mpi4py. To avoid this issue, replace the `--network host` flag with more precise networking configuration by mapping only the necessary ports (e.g., 4222 for nats, 2379/2380 for etcd, 8000 for frontend).
