Start here if you’re building or operating agent applications. This section is about deploying your application. If you need to set up LangSmith infrastructure, the Hosting section covers infrastructure options (Cloud, Hybrid, Self-hosted) and setup guides for Hybrid and Self-hosted deployments.
- Test locally: Run your application on a local server.
- Choose hosting: Select Cloud, Hybrid, or Self-hosted.
- Deploy your app: Push code or build images to your chosen environment.
- Monitor & manage: Track traces, alerts, and dashboards.
Prerequisites: Before deploying applications, you need a LangSmith instance to deploy to. Choose a hosting option first:
- Cloud: Fully managed with automated CI/CD from a Git repository.
- Hybrid: Enterprise option for data residency requirements.
- Self-hosted: Full control and data isolation.
What you’ll learn
- Configure your app for deployment (dependencies, project setup, and monorepo support).
- Build, deploy, and update LangGraph Servers.
- Secure your deployments with authentication and access control.
- Customize your server runtime (lifespan hooks, middleware, and routes).
- Debug, observe, and troubleshoot deployed agents using the Studio UI.
