Description
Anyscale on Azure is now Generally Available. Anyscale on Azure is a managed platform for running distributed Python workloads on Ray. It deploys directly onto your Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS) cluster and integrates with the Azure services your team already uses. Unlike other processing engines which either only support one hardware type (e.g. CPUs) or focus on a single workload (e.g. inference), Ray turns a heterogeneous cluster of CPUs and GPUs into a single Python runtime composing data preparation, distributed training, fine-tuning, reinforcement learning, high-throughput inference, and agentic execution as one program. Anyscale on Azure brings Ray, the distributed compute runtime, into your Azure tenant as an Azure Native service, that includes purpose-built developer tooling and unified pane for cluster management, built through deep engineering collaboration between Anyscale and Microsoft.
