# Workload Management

## Prerequisite: Providers Registration

To access LatticaAI’s Workload Management features, providers must:

* **Sign Up:** Register on the LatticaAI platform and complete the onboarding details.
* **Choose Your Management Interface:**
  * Use the **Web Management Console** for a streamlined, browser-based experience\
    —or—
  * [**Install the Management Client**](/how-to-guides/client-installation/how-to-install-management-client.md) if you prefer to integrate directly via our SDK.

Both options support full workload deployment and management workflows - choose the one that fits your development style.

## Workload Management Workflow

To use your Privacy-preserving workloads with LatticaAI, follow these steps:

{% stepper %}
{% step %}

### Consultation and Workload Deployment

[Contact us](https://platformdocs.lattica.ai/platform-workflows/www.lattica.ai/company#contact-us) to evaluate whether your AI model is suitable for encrypted data processing.

If the model is compatible, [deploy it ](/how-to-guides/workload-lifecycle/how-to-deploy-workload.md)to the LatticaAI backend using the Management Client. 
{% endstep %}

{% step %}

### Homomorphic-Ready Model Creation

LatticaAI will transform the deployed model to create a homomorphic-ready version for encrypted data processing. Once this process is complete:

* The model's status in the system will change from **"Pipeline Pending"** to **"Active"**.
* The updated status will be visible in the Web Console, allowing the provider to manage and utilize the model for encrypted data interactions.
  {% endstep %}

{% step %}

### Manage Your Model

After deployment, you can manage your workload through the **web console** or **Python SDK**.

[**Change Workload Settings**](/how-to-guides/workload-lifecycle/how-to-modify-workload-settings.md):

* **Status**: Set the model as **active** or **inactive**.

  <div data-gb-custom-block data-tag="hint" data-style="info" class="hint hint-info"><p>Queries can only run on active workloads that have at least one linked worker assigned to process the requests.</p></div>
* **Name and Description**: Update the workload’s name or description to keep records accurate.
  {% endstep %}
  {% endstepper %}
