Data Management

Integrating Kubeflow with Rok for data versioning, packaging, and secure sharing

Since a data scientist can build hundreds of different variants of their models, the ability to quickly create new models and save the code and data of each version is critical for faster iterations and better models. Automating workflows and keeping track of the machine learning (ML) code, packages, libraries, data sets and artifacts for each ML pipeline step requires integrated data management systems and processes.

As a leading contributor to Kubeflow, Arrikto incorporates its standards-based, scale-out storage and data management solution (Rok) with Kubeflow. Arrikto’s Rok presents a Kubernetes storage class to Kubeflow and natively integrates with the critical Kubeflow components. Rok’s native integration simplifies operations, boosts performance, and enables best practices for efficient data versioning, packaging, and secure sharing across teams and cloud boundaries.

The screenshot below shows the Snapshot Store option that Rok adds to the left-hand navigation panel in the Kubeflow UI:
