Overview

Pods in Lium represent individual GPU rental units that users can lease for their computational needs. Each pod is a containerized environment that provides secure, isolated access to GPU resources through the Bittensor subnet infrastructure.

Security depends on the underlying machine you choose. CVM-enabled machines provide stronger isolation for sensitive workloads, while non-CVM machines may allow the GPU provider to access the rented pod. Review the Create Pod guide before deployment, and read the Confidential Virtual Machine (CVM) guide if you need the full security model.
