Kubeflow
Kubeflow is an open-source machine learning (ML) toolkit designed to make deploying ML workflows on Kubernetes simple, portable,
and scalable. It provides a set of integrated components that facilitate end-to-end ML workflows, including:
1. Jupyter Notebooks: For interactive development and experimentation with ML models.
2. TensorFlow Extended (TFX): For deploying production-ready ML pipelines.
3. Katib: For hyperparameter tuning and optimization.
4. Kubeflow Pipelines: For building and deploying portable and scalable end-to-end ML workflows.

Kubeflow leverages Kubernetes' strengths in orchestration and scalability, making it easier for teams to manage ML workloads across
different environments from development to production. It's particularly useful in MLOps (Machine Learning Operations) for
maintaining consistency, reproducibility, and scalability in machine learning projects.
