The Phoenix app can be run in various environments such as Colab and SageMaker notebooks, as well as be served via the terminal or a docker container.
If you are set up, see Quickstarts to start using Phoenix in your preferred environment.
Phoenix Cloud provides free-to-use Phoenix instances that are preconfigured for you with 10GBs of storage space. Phoenix Cloud instances are a great starting point, however if you need more storage or more control over your instance, self-hosting options could be a better fit.
If you're using Phoenix Cloud, be sure to set the proper environment variables to connect to your instance:
See Self-Hosting.
To start phoenix in a notebook environment, run:
This will start a local Phoenix server. You can initialize the phoenix server with various kinds of data (traces, inferences).
If you want to start a phoenix server to collect traces, you can also run phoenix directly from the command line:
This will start the phoenix server on port 6006. If you are running your instrumented notebook or application on the same machine, traces should automatically be exported to http://127.0.0.1:6006 so no additional configuration is needed. However if the server is running remotely, you will have to modify the environment variable PHOENIX_COLLECTOR_ENDPOINT to point to that machine (e.g. http://<my-remote-machine>:<port>)
From the Terminal
Run Phoenix via the CLI on your local machine
