Introducing the All-New VESSL Storage Update

We are excited to announce the release of our new VESSL Storage update. In the previous version, we faced several challenges:

  • Ambiguous definitions: The definitions of Storage, Dataset, Model, and Artifact were not clear.
  • Complex operations: The methods for importing, mounting, and exporting were not straightforward.
  • Unclear artifact functionality: Understanding the function and role of Artifacts was difficult.

To resolve the above issues, we proactively developed followings:

Key Updates

  • Unified “Volume” concept: We’ve integrated artifacts, models, logs, and datasets into a single unit called Volume.
  • Seamless integration with workloads: Easily integrate Volumes with runs, workspaces, services, and pipelines.
  • Enhanced storage components:
    • Support for VESSL Storage and External Storage: Users can store Volumes in VESSL Storage or external storage solutions like AWS S3, GCP Storage (to be released in early November), and on-premise NFS systems. Files and directories are fully managed in VESSL Storage through automatic storage provisioning.
      • VESSL Storage: Optimized for use with VESSL features and ready to use immediately without any integration process.
      • External Storage: Allows users to retain data ownership and use data on VESSL without data migration, offering both high security and convenience.
  • Simplified import, mount, and export operations in the VESSL features:
    • Previous version:
      • Import: Code / HuggingFace / Dataset / Model / GCS / S3 / Files / Artifact
    • Current version:
      • Import: Code / HuggingFace / Volume / Model
      • Mount: Volume / GCS Fuse
      • Export: Volume / Model
  • Manage exported data in Volumes: In VESSL Storage’s Volumes, users can view exported data such as logs, metrics, and model checkpoints from VESSL Runs and Workspaces.

Pipeline general availability (GA) update

VESSL Pipeline has reached general availability, designed to enhance the execution of complex ML workflows such as LLM fine-tuning, data preprocessing, and batch inference.

  • Key features:
    • Drag-and-drop GUI: Intuitive interface for modifying and visualizing pipeline flows.
    • Infra-as-code: YAML-based code interface integration, enabling effective version management of pipeline modifications.
    • High visibility and debuggability: Improved debugging capabilities with natural separation of task stages, including endpoint access and re-execution for failed tasks.
    • Human-in-the-loop: Built-in support for scenarios requiring user intervention, such as intermediate result feedback and decision-making based on input/output.

Three early adopters have successfully integrated their services into the running pipeline. If you’re interested in integrating the VESSL Pipeline, please contact our sales team.

Serverless deployment

Our serverless deployment infrastructure is the easiest way to scale inference workloads on remote GPUs. With continuous batching, effortless autoscaling, fast cold start, full observability, and more, your APIs are production-ready for full-spectrum AI & LLM applications.

  • Key features:
    • Cost efficiency: Serverless Mode operates on a scale-to-zero basis, ensuring that users only pay for the resources they actually use.
    • Automatic scaling: Real-time scaling based on workload demands without the need for complex configurations.
    • Simplified deployment: Minimal configuration required, making deployment accessible to all users.
    • High availability and resilience: Fast startup times (average 17 seconds) and robust infrastructure ensure high availability with minimal cold starts.

Refer to our docs to put custom Llama 3 in action Text Generation Inference (TGI), in 3 simple steps.

  1. Create a remote GPU-accelerated container
  2. Create an endpoint with Llama 3 from Hugging Face
  3. Send an HTTPS request to the deployed service
