Many frameworks and toolkits in the industry attempt to make data more scalable and easier to deploy, but most fail to address the crucial challenge of data management and data availability. Many also feature proprietary data platforms that lack proven, enterprise-class reliability.
The NetApp® AI Control Plane and Data Science Toolkit address these challenges. They simplify data management, streamline AI workflows, and help you get the most out of your data.
AI Control Plane and Data Science Toolkit
The AI Control Plane is a full-stack solution for managing AI data and experimentation; it integrates Kubernetes and Kubeflow with a data fabric enabled by NetApp. Kubernetes, the industry-standard container orchestration platform for cloud-native deployments, makes workloads more scalable and portable. Kubeflow is an open-source ML platform that simplifies management and deployment. And when your data fabric is powered by NetApp, you get uncompromising data availability and portability so that your data is accessible across the pipeline, from edge to core to cloud.
The NetApp Data Science Toolkit is a Python library that makes it easy for data scientists and data engineers to perform numerous data management tasks. These tasks include provisioning a new data volume, cloning a data volume almost instantaneously, and creating a NetApp Snapshot™ copy of a data volume for traceability and baselining. Traceability can add hours to AI operations—hours that the data scientist spends waiting instead of experimenting. The Data Science Toolkit reduces those hours to seconds.
The Data Science Toolkit also enhances the NetApp AI Control Plane by making it much easier to manage data. For example, a data scientist working on a Jupyter Notebook that was provisioned using the AI Control Plane can use the toolkit to implement a data management task in one simple line of Python code. The toolkit can also integrate advanced NetApp data management capabilities into other MLOps platforms—including custom and homegrown platforms—or serve as a standalone solution for teams that don’t need the overhead of a full-blown MLOps platform.
Watch these short videos to see how you can provision a new data volume in minutes and almost instantaneously create an exact copy of a data volume—all using the Data Science Toolkit.
