Overview
Integrate SambaNova models directly into DataRobot Workbench as custom managed LLMs. Once connected, you can:- Use SambaNova models inside RAG and Agentic Workflows
- Interact with models via Playground chat
- Manage deployments with full governance and monitoring through DataRobot
For detailed implementation guidance, see the Full SambaNova DataRobot Integration guide.
Prerequisites
Before you begin, ensure you have:- A SambaNova Cloud account with an API key
- Access to DataRobot Workbench, Console, and Registry
Required files
Download the following files from the SambaNova integrations repository:custom.py
— defines the chat and load_model DataRobot hooksrequirements.txt
— minimal dependencies (sambanova
,pandas
)model-metadata.yaml
— runtime parameters configuration
Setup
Follow these steps to deploy a SambaNova-powered model inside DataRobot:-
Create a Custom Model
- Navigate to Registry → Workshop → + Add Model
- Select Proxy type with
TextGeneration
target type - Upload your
custom.py
,requirements.txt
, andmodel-metadata.yaml
files
-
Build Environment
- Select
[GenAI] Python 3.12 with Moderations
as the base environment - Click Build and wait for “Environment built successfully” confirmation
- Select
-
Configure Runtime Parameters
Open the runtime parameter editor and configure the following:
-
SAMBANOVA_API_KEY
→ your SambaNova API token -
SAMBANOVA_API_BASE
→https://api.sambanova.ai/v1
-
SAMBANOVA_MODEL
→gpt-oss-120b
-
- Register your custom SambaNova model in the DataRobot Registry.
-
Deploy the Model
- Go to Registry → Models → Deploy
- Select your previously registered custom model
-
Wait until the deployment status shows Active
-
Link to RAG or Agentic Workflow
- In Workbench, create a new GenAI RAG use case
- Navigate to Playground → Create LLM blueprint → Add deployed LLM
- Select your deployment (e.g.,
SambaNova Chat
) - Set Chat model ID to the SambaNova model name (e.g.,
gpt-oss-120b
) - Validate and add the configuration
- Configure your vector store, system prompt, and history management settings
