    Hello,

    I would like to run Unity in a cluster in order to train a ML model using ML-Agents.

    Unity Simulation seems like the right tool for the job, but I have no budget for Unity's cloud.
    I do, however, have access to a local cluster of Linux machines. Is it possible to run Unity Simulation on my own cluster?

    Thanks in advance

    hi @Null_Terminator - thank you for reaching out. It is possible to dockerize ML-Agents and run a local cluster of Linux machines. We provide some documentation, however, it is not supported officially by the team (https://github.com/Unity-Technologies/ml-agents/blob/master/docs/Using-Docker.md).

    Also, we'd love to get your interest to participate in our ML-Agents cloud training alpha. If you are, here is a sign-up link below:

    Thanks for the reply!

    I will ask our IT if Docker suffices our needs, but I am a little worried about the fact that the documentation you linked is derprecated. Is it reliable?

    EDIT: After reading a little bit, it seems that there is no GPU support for the Docker option

    I have signed up for the training alpha, looking forward to hearing from you!
