How to run Qwen2.5-14B-Instruct
Run Qwen2.5-14B-Instruct with vLLM
Generic example, not from the model's own docs: adjust flags (quantization, context length, parallelism) for your setup.
vllm serve Qwen/Qwen2.5-14B-Instruct --tensor-parallel-size 1Run Qwen2.5-14B-Instruct with Ollama
Verified against Ollama's own library listing.
ollama run qwen2.5:14bRun Qwen2.5-14B-Instruct with GGUF quantizations
Prebuilt GGUF weights published at bartowski/Qwen2.5-14B-Instruct-GGUF. Run with llama.cpp's llama-server or load the repo directly in LM Studio.

Deploy Qwen2.5-14B-Instruct on Aquanode
Aquanode has no one-click deploy template for Qwen2.5-14B-Instruct; you install the inference engine yourself with the commands below. Aquanode sells GPU pods billed per second, not a hosted inference API.
- Launch a bare GPU pod sized to the requirement above (1× RTX A6000 or larger).
- 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.
- Run the command and connect to the resulting endpoint.
