+####################
+ Parallel Inference
+####################
+
+If the memory requirements of your model are too large to fit within a
+single GPU, you can run Anemoi-Inference in parallel across multiple
+GPUs.
+
+Parallel inference requires SLURM to launch the parallel processes and
+to determine information about your network environment. If SLURM is not
+available to you, please create an issue on the Anemoi-Inference github
+page `here <https://github.com/ecmwf/anemoi-inference/issues>`_.
+
+***************
+ Configuration
+***************
+
+To run in parallel, you must add '`runner:parallel`' to your inference
+config file.
+
+.. code:: yaml
+
+   checkpoint: /path/to/inference-last.ckpt
+   lead_time: 60
+   runner: parallel
+   input:
+     grib: /path/to/input.grib
+   output:
+     grib: /path/to/output.grib
+
+*******************************
+ Running inference in parallel
+*******************************
+
+Below is an example SLURM batch script to launch a parallel inference
+job across 4 GPUs.
+
+.. code:: bash
+
+   #!/bin/bash
+   #SBATCH --nodes=1
+   #SBATCH --ntasks-per-node=4
+   #SBATCH --gpus-per-node=4
+   #SBATCH --cpus-per-task=8
+   #SBATCH --time=0:05:00
+   #SBATCH --output=outputs/parallel_inf.%j.out
+
+   source /path/to/venv/bin/activate
+   srun anemoi-inference run parallel.yaml
+
+.. warning::
+
+   If you specify '`runner:parallel`' but you don't launch with
+   '`srun`', your anemoi-inference job may hang as only 1 process will
+   be launched.
+
+.. note::
+
+   By default, anemoi-inference will determine your systems master
+   address and port itself. If this fails (i.e. when running
+   Anemoi-Inference inside a container), you can instead set these
+   values yourself via environment variables in your SLURM batch script:
+
+   .. code:: bash
+
+      MASTER_ADDR=$(scontrol show hostname $SLURM_NODELIST | head -n 1)
+      export MASTER_ADDR=$(nslookup $MASTER_ADDR | grep -oP '(?<=Address: ).*')
+      export MASTER_PORT=$((10000 + RANDOM % 10000))
+
+      srun anemoi-inference run parallel.yaml
