Public Preview: Anyscale on Azure

Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS)Azure · Compute

Now in Public Preview, Anyscale on Azure is a cloud-native managed Ray platform for machine learning engineers and AI developers who need to run Python workloads at massive scale without compromising speed or control. It brings the power of Ray’s distributed execution together with Azure Kubernetes Service to create a purpose-built platform for modern, large-scale AI systems. Anyscale on Azure helps AI teams move from a single-machine experiment to production-grade systems running across hundreds or thousands of CPUs and GPUs both in Azure Kubernetes clusters. By eliminating the infrastructure and distributed systems burden, teams can focus on building better models, iterating faster, and shipping AI into real products.
