# Deploy a Deadline Cloud CUDA farm with CloudFormation
<a name="examples-cfn-cuda-farm"></a>

The [cuda\_farm](https://github.com/aws-deadline/deadline-cloud-samples/tree/mainline/cloudformation/farm_templates/cuda_farm) CloudFormation template deploys a Deadline Cloud farm that you can use to run CUDA jobs. The default configuration includes a queue for CUDA jobs, a second queue for building conda packages, and a CUDA-capable fleet.

This template specializes the [Deploy a starter Deadline Cloud farm with CloudFormation](examples-cfn-starter-farm.md) template for the CUDA use case:
+ The default `CondaChannels` value is `deadline-cloud conda-forge`, which makes CUDA compilers, frameworks like PyTorch, and applications like COLMAP available.
+ The Linux CUDA fleet is required, and the Windows and Linux CPU fleets are removed.

This template provisions the infrastructure that the [Train 3D Gaussian Splatting from video on Deadline Cloud](examples-jb-gaussian-splatting.md) and [Benchmark LLMs with vLLM and lm-evaluation-harness on Deadline Cloud](examples-jb-vllm-leaderboard.md) job bundles need.
