How to run gemma-4-E2B-it

Run gemma-4-E2B-it with vLLM

Generic example, not from the model's own docs: adjust flags (quantization, context length, parallelism) for your setup.

vllm serve google/gemma-4-E2B-it --tensor-parallel-size 1

Deploy gemma-4-E2B-it on Aquanode

Aquanode has no one-click deploy template for gemma-4-E2B-it; you install the inference engine yourself with the commands below. Aquanode sells GPU pods billed per second, not a hosted inference API.

  1. Launch a bare GPU pod sized to the requirement above (1× RTX 3060 or larger).
  2. Open a terminal on the pod, or save one of the commands above as a startup script so it runs automatically the first time the pod boots.
  3. Run the command and connect to the resulting endpoint.

Submit the job. Everything after that is ours.

Sign up in 60 seconds. Pay for the GPU minutes you actually use.
