What it is
Olares is an open-source personal cloud OS designed to run AI agents and LLMs on hardware you own. It uses Kubernetes to turn machines into a self-hosted AI platform accessible from a browser, with features for local AI apps, model management, and private networking across nodes.
How it works
The project components include system services, apps, and infrastructure for computing, storage, networking, and GPU management. It provides an architecture that maps IaaS/PaaS/SaaS-like layers to open-source components for a self-hosted setup. It supports features like GPU pooling, time-slicing, memory-slicing, and exclusive GPU modes across nodes, plus a Files app for local and connected storage, and private networking tools (VPN, reverse proxy) to expose HTTPS endpoints without per-port exposure.
Getting started
From the README, installation on a Linux host is guided by the Linux script method:
-
Install and activate via a Linux script:
curl -fsSL https://olares.sh | bash - -
Create an Olares ID in LarePass, then follow the guided web wizard or activate using the Olares CLI. After activation, access is via a browser at an address derived from your Olares ID (e.g., https://desktop.marvin123.olares.com).
