Fwd: [Announcement] Analytics Zoo 0.10.0 release

[Jason Dai]

Hi Everyone,

I’m happy to announce the 0.10.0 release for Analytics Zoo (distributed TensorFlow and PyTorch on Apache Spark/Flink & Ray); the highlights of this release include: 

• A re-designed document website for the following improvements:
• Orca (simplified APIs for running distributed TF, PyTorch, BigDL and OpenVINO on Spark/Ray)
• RayOnSpark (running Ray program inline with the Spark code)
• Spark ML pipeline and Keras-like APIs for BigDL
• Zouwu (time series framework with AutoML)
• Ready-to-run colab notebooks (for Orca, RayOnSpark, Zouwu, etc.)

• Experimental PPML support for Privacy Preserving Big Data AI
• Running unmodified Apache Spark/Flink and TF/PyTorch/BigDL/OpenVINO in a secure fashion on cloud

 Thanks,

-Jason

Hi Jason,

Thanks for sharing. I look up the term "Flink" on https://analytics-zoo.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ but it doesn't even exist. Do you mind sharing how does it relate to Flink users?

Best,

Yik San

Please See the following:

1) Analytics Zoo PPML supports running unmodified Flink programs in a secure fashion on an untrusted cloud (https://analytics-zoo.readthedocs.io/en/latest/doc/PPML/Overview/ppml.html#trusted-realtime-compute-and-ml)

2)  Analytics Zoo Cluster Serving supports distributed real-time DL (TensorFlow, PyTorch, BigDL, OpenVINO, etc.) model serving on Flink (see https://analytics-zoo.github.io/master/#ClusterServingGuide/ProgrammingGuide/ - we are yet to migrate this page to the new document website).

Thanks,

-Jason
