Decision brief
H2O LLM Studio is designed for users who seek an accessible platform to fine-tune large language models (LLMs) without deep coding expertise.
Good fit when
- When needing a no-code graphical user interface to simplify the process of fine-tuning LLMs, making the practice more approachable and less code-intensive.
- If you are working with specific frameworks for fine-tuning like H2O supports and prefer a streamlined training tool that integrates well within its ecosystem.
Avoid when
- When your project requires direct control over the LLM training process through extensive custom coding, as H2O LLM Studio emphasizes ease of use without as much low-level customization.
- If you require support for a specific LLM or feature set not covered by H2O's offerings or integrations.

Installing NVIDIA Drivers (if required)
If deploying on a 'bare metal' machine running Ubuntu, one may need to install the required NVIDIA drivers and CUDA. The following commands show how to retrieve the latest drivers for a machine running Ubuntu 20.04 as an example. One can update the following based on their OS.
wget https://developer.download.nvidia.com/compute/cuda/repos/ubuntu2204/x86_64/cuda-ubuntu2204.pin
sudo mv cuda-ubuntu2204.pin /etc/apt/preferences.d/cuda-repository-pin-600
wget https://developer.download.nvidia.com/compute/cuda/12.4.0/local_installers/cuda-repo-ubuntu2204-12-4-local_12.4.0-550.54.14-1_amd64.deb
sudo dpkg -i cuda-repo-ubuntu2204-12-4-local_12.4.0-550.54.14-1_amd64.deb
sudo cp /var/cuda-repo-ubuntu2204-12-4-local/cuda-*-keyring.gpg /usr/share/keyrings/
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get -y install cuda-toolkit-12-4
