AI Gateway on Self-Managed support strategy
The GitLab AI Gateway can be installed in Self-Managed environments using [Docker](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/452489).
This issue discusses future installation methods and their support timeline. See also [this thread](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-com/gl-security/security-assurance/fedramp/fedramp-certification/-/issues/452#note_1832261170) for additional context.
The decision has been made **not** to support deployment of AI Gateway using Omnibus, as noted here https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/omnibus-gitlab/-/issues/8467+
