unable to install tensorflow model server

Question

I am trying to deploy my model on tensorflow serving. But I am facing issue with the installation of tensorflow model server itself. Do I need to install anything else before model server can be installed? I am using python v3.6 and tensorflow version 1.12.0 currently on VM.

conda install tensorflow-model-server

pip install tensorflow-model-server

Below are the two ways using which I am trying to install:

1. using conda install which gives me below error. Solving environment: failed PackagesNotFoundError: The following packages are not available from current channels: tensorflow-model-server

2. using pip which is says: Collecting tensorflow-model-server Could not find a version that satisfies the requirement tensorflow-model-server (from versions: ) No matching distribution found for tensorflow-model-server

Answer 1

Did you try to follow instruction that are provide into documentation?

At very first, you should try to Add Tensorflow Service as package source using instructions as below

echo "deb [arch=amd64] http://storage.googleapis.com/tensorflow-serving-apt stable tensorflow-model-server tensorflow-model-server-universal" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/tensorflow-serving.list && \
curl https://storage.googleapis.com/tensorflow-serving-apt/tensorflow-serving.release.pub.gpg | sudo apt-key add -


# then install 

apt-get update && apt-get install tensorflow-model-server
