Getting Started with Self-Hosting
Self-Hosting is the practice of locally hosting(on premises & private web servers) and managing software applications by a person or organization instead of monthly subscriptions from Software as a service (SaaS) providers.
Most self-hosted software can be installed using Docker, a packaging system which allows software to bundle their configuration and dependencies and isolate them from your operating system. Software using docker can be installed using the command line or via graphical interfaces such as Portainer. Software is installed with Docker by downloading an image file containing the application, then creating a copy that sets up its own dependencies and configuration within what is called a container. Without containers you would often need to install different versions of the same programming languages or tools to satisfy the dependencies for the software you want to use which can get complicated.
Container is a standard unit of software that packages up code and all its dependencies(including CPU, memory, file storage, and network connections) so the application runs quickly and reliably from one computing environment to another.
Container Image is a lightweight, standalone, executable package of software that includes everything needed to run an application such as the code, runtime, system tools, system libraries, and settings.
Best places to get Container Images:
Docker Compose is a tool that was developed to help define and share multi-container applications. With Compose, we can create a YAML file to define the services and with a single command, can spin everything up or tear it all down.
Docker Include is a Compose application can declare dependency on another Compose application. This is useful if you want to reuse other Compose files. Also, if you need to factor out parts of your application model into separate Compose files so they can be managed separately or shared with others.

How Encryption Keys work
Symmetric is a data encryption method whereby the same private key is used to encode and decode information.
Asymmetric is a data encryption method that allows users to encrypt information using shared keys. For example, if you need to send a message across the internet, but you don't want anyone but the intended recipient to see what you've written.
Types of Encryption
Triple DES (Triple Data Encryption Algorithm) is a symmetric-key block cipher, which applies the DES cipher algorithm three times to each data block(contains 64 bits of data).
AES (Advanced Encryption Standard) is an algorithm that encrypts and decrypts data in blocks of 128 bits. It can do this using 128-bit, 192-bit, or 256-bit keys.
RSA (Rivest–Shamir–Adleman) is a type of public-key cryptography used for secure data transmission of e-mail and other digital transactions over the Internet.
Twofish is a symmetric key block cipher with a block size of 128 bits and key sizes up to 256 bits. It is an advanced version of Blowfish encryption.
Format Preserving Encryption (FPE) is a valid encryption algorithm to be used for compliance with NIST standards. It is mostly used in on-premise encryption and tokenization solutions.
Application Level Encryption
Hashes is a function that converts an input of letters and numbers into an encrypted output of a fixed length. For example, algorithms such as MD5 (Message Digest 5) or SHA (Secure Hash Algorithm).
Digital Certificates is a file that verifies the identity of a device or user and enables encrypted connections. A digital signature is a hashing approach that uses a numeric string to provide authenticity and validate identity. Digital certificates are typically issued by a certificate authority (CA), which is a trusted third-party entity that issues digital certificates for use by other parties.

Getting Started with Self-Hosting
Self-Hosting is the practice of locally hosting(on premises & private web servers) and managing software applications by a person or organization instead of monthly subscriptions from Software as a service (SaaS) providers.
Most self-hosted software can be installed using Docker, a packaging system which allows software to bundle their configuration and dependencies and isolate them from your operating system. Software using docker can be installed using the command line or via graphical interfaces such as Portainer. Software is installed with Docker by downloading an image file containing the application, then creating a copy that sets up its own dependencies and configuration within what is called a container. Without containers you would often need to install different versions of the same programming languages or tools to satisfy the dependencies for the software you want to use which can get complicated.
Container is a standard unit of software that packages up code and all its dependencies(including CPU, memory, file storage, and network connections) so the application runs quickly and reliably from one computing environment to another.
Container Image is a lightweight, standalone, executable package of software that includes everything needed to run an application such as the code, runtime, system tools, system libraries, and settings.
Best places to get Container Images:
Docker Compose is a tool that was developed to help define and share multi-container applications. With Compose, we can create a YAML file to define the services and with a single command, can spin everything up or tear it all down.
Docker Include is a Compose application can declare dependency on another Compose application. This is useful if you want to reuse other Compose files. Also, if you need to factor out parts of your application model into separate Compose files so they can be managed separately or shared with others.
Kompose is a conversion tool for Docker Compose to container orchestrators such as Kubernetes or OpenShift.
SwarmKit is a toolkit for orchestrating distributed systems at any scale. It includes primitives for node discovery, raft-based consensus, task scheduling and more.

docker run -e OPENAI_API_KEY=xxxxxxxx -p 3000:3000 chatgpt-ui
1. Clone Project Repo
git clone https://github.com/mckaywrigley/chatbot-ui.git
2. Install Dependencies
npm i
3. Provide OpenAI API Key
Create a .env.local file in the root of the repo with your OpenAI API Key:
OPENAI_API_KEY=YOUR_KEY
You can set OPENAI_API_HOST where access to the official OpenAI host is restricted or unavailable, allowing users to configure an alternative host for their specific needs.

Launching Demo Locally
Try out the demo demo.py on your local machine by running
python demo.py --cfg-path eval_configs/minigpt4_eval.yaml --gpu-id 0
Here, the demo loads Vicuna as 8 bit by default to save some GPU memory usage. Besides, the default beam search width is 1. Under this setting, the demo cost about 23G GPU memory. If you have a more powerful GPU with larger GPU memory, you can run the model in 16 bit by setting low_resource to False in the config file minigpt4_eval.yaml and use a larger beam search width.

How Encryption Keys work
Symmetric is a data encryption method whereby the same private key is used to encode and decode information.
Asymmetric is a data encryption method that allows users to encrypt information using shared keys. For example, if you need to send a message across the internet, but you don't want anyone but the intended recipient to see what you've written.
Types of Encryption
Triple DES (Triple Data Encryption Algorithm) is a symmetric-key block cipher, which applies the DES cipher algorithm three times to each data block(contains 64 bits of data).
AES (Advanced Encryption Standard) is an algorithm that encrypts and decrypts data in blocks of 128 bits. It can do this using 128-bit, 192-bit, or 256-bit keys.
RSA (Rivest–Shamir–Adleman) is a type of public-key cryptography used for secure data transmission of e-mail and other digital transactions over the Internet.
Twofish is a symmetric key block cipher with a block size of 128 bits and key sizes up to 256 bits. It is an advanced version of Blowfish encryption.
Format Preserving Encryption (FPE) is a valid encryption algorithm to be used for compliance with NIST standards. It is mostly used in on-premise encryption and tokenization solutions.
Application Level Encryption
Hashes is a function that converts an input of letters and numbers into an encrypted output of a fixed length. For example, algorithms such as MD5 (Message Digest 5) or SHA (Secure Hash Algorithm).
Digital Certificates is a file that verifies the identity of a device or user and enables encrypted connections. A digital signature is a hashing approach that uses a numeric string to provide authenticity and validate identity. Digital certificates are typically issued by a certificate authority (CA), which is a trusted third-party entity that issues digital certificates for use by other parties.
