Open Sour ce MLOps Tools
Check out the fast-growing ecosystem of production ML tools & frameworks at the github repository which has reached over 20,000 ⭐ github stars. We are currently looking for more libraries to add - if you know of any that are not listed, please let us know or feel free to add a PR. Here's a few featured open source libraries that we maintain:
- SARC - Provides wrappers for popular agentic frameworks to enable guardrails and constraints that are enforced through the flow.
- KAOS - K8s Agent Orchestration Service for managing the KAOS in large-scale distributed agentic systems.
- Kompute - Blazing fast, lightweight and mobile phone-enabled GPU compute framework optimized for advanced data processing use cases.
- Production ML Tools - A curated list of tools to deploy, monitor and optimize machine learning systems at scale.
- AI Policy List - A mature list that maps the ecosystem of artificial intelligence guidelines, principles, codes of ethics, standards, regulation and beyond.
- Agentic Systems Tools - A new list that aims to map the emerging ecosystem of agentic systems with tools and frameworks for scaling this domain.
Please do support some of our open source projects by sharing, contributing or adding a star ⭐
