KUALA LUMPUR, Sept 29 (Bernama) -- Cloudflare Inc has announced a continued collaboration with Databricks, the Data and artificial intelligence (AI) company, to bring MLflow capabilities to developers building on Cloudflare’s serverless developer platform.
“Together with Databricks we can offer a comprehensive and optimized platform to support a wide spectrum of AI workflows, models and applications,” said Cloudflare chief executive officer and co-founder, Matthew Prince.
Cloudflare is joining the open source MLflow project as an active contributor to bridge the gap between training models and easily deploying them to the company’s global network, where AI models can run close to end-users for a low-latency experience.
In this new phase of partnership and collaboration on MLflow, an open-source platform for managing the machine learning (ML) lifecycle created by Databricks, Cloudflare and Databricks are closing the loop on how AI models are quickly and easily deployed to the edge.
With this new partnership, developers will be able to train models utilising Databricks’ data-centric AI platform, then deploy those models to Cloudflare’s developer platform and global network, where hyper-local inference is deployed on the edge, to complete the AI lifecycle.
Developers building on Cloudflare Workers AI will be able to leverage MLflow compatible models for easy deployment into Cloudflare’s global network, while also able to use MLflow to efficiently package, implement, deploy and track a model directly into Cloudflare’s serverless developer platform.
According to a statement, Databricks and Cloudflare already collaborate to simplify the AI lifecycle by making sharing data simpler and more affordable through Delta Sharing with R2 storage.
Cloudflare’s R2 is a zero egress, distributed object storage offering, allowing data teams to share live data sets and AI models with Databricks, easily and efficiently, eliminating the need for complex data transfers or duplications of data sets, and with zero egress fees.
A connectivity cloud company, Cloudflare empowers organisations to make their employees, applications and networks faster and more secure everywhere, while reducing complexity and cost.
