About deployKF

What is deployKF?

deployKF helps you build world-class data and machine learning platforms on any Kubernetes cluster, in any cloud or environment.

Our vision is that anyone with Kubernetes experience can effortlessly build and support a custom data and machine learning platform for their organization, without requiring specialized MLOps knowledge.

Why use deployKF?

deployKF combines the ease of a managed service with the flexibility of a self-hosted solution. Create a platform that is tailored to your organization's needs, while not also requiring a team of MLOps experts to build and maintain it.

The key features of deployKF are:

• Run on any Kubernetes cluster, including on-premises and in the cloud
• Deploy leading Data and ML tools like Kubeflow, Airflow^†, and MLflow^†
• Intuitive centralized configs for all aspects of the platform
• Seamless in-place upgrades and config updates
• Connect your existing Istio, cert-manager, Kyverno, S3, and MySQL
• Use any identity provider via OpenID Connect or LDAP
• Native support for GitOps with ArgoCD

How are Kubeflow and deployKF related?

Kubeflow and deployKF are two different but related projects.

You may wish to review our detailed deployKF vs Kubeflow Manifests comparison. Note, most other distributions of Kubeflow use largely unmodified versions of the Kubeflow Manifests. So the comparison is also relevant to them.

Who maintains deployKF?

deployKF was originally created and is maintained by Mathew Wicks (GitHub: @thesuperzapper), a Kubeflow lead and maintainer of the popular Apache Airflow Helm Chart. deployKF is a community-led project that welcomes contributions from anyone who wants to help.
