Can I expose my Nvidia gpu to the lan via a docker container? (lemmy.world)

I have a P400 in my storage server which currently also runs some media containers like Plex, sonarr-sma, radarr-sma, Jellyfin, exploring Immich, etc. I have the GPU surfaced via docker and added it to each of the containers that needed access to the GPU for hardware acceleration needs. Is it possible to be able to leverage the Nvidia gpu container remotely (over the lan) without having the containers access it (pseudo) directly? I want to move the media handling containers to a Turing Pi 2 and keep just the GPU access on the storage server.

Not sure about docker support, but there is a gpu-over-ip implementation that supports Linux here: https://github.com/Juice-Labs/Juice-Labs

This is interesting, thanks!

Exit: Sadly, they don't support media encoding at all. So might still be useful for ML duties.
