The SAP Federated ML Python libraries (FedML) applies the Data Federation architecture of SAP Datasphere for intelligently sourcing SAP as well as non-SAP data for Machine Learning experiments done at the ML platforms removing the need for replicating or moving data. By abstracting the Data Connection, Data load (for all ML platforms) and Model training (with flexibility and provision for user provided training scripts), Model Deployment, and Inferencing (for Hyperscaler Machine learning platforms) , the FedML library provides end to end integration with few lines of code .
1. The new version of FedML (available as fedml-dsp in PyPi, V1.0.0) :
- Is machine learning platform-independent. It can be used in all machine learning platforms
- Supports NVIDIA RAPIDS™, CUDA cuDF and cuPy and hence can be used for training models in GPU environments.
- Supports sourcing data from SAP Datasphere models directly into PySpark and cuPy (for GPU) dataframes.
- Supports SAP AI Core Deployment - Models that are trained in any ML Platform (and containerized independently) can now be deployed in SAP GenAI Hub's AI Core with couple lines of code.
- Supports writing inferenced results back to SAP Datasphere.
2.FedML (Original, V2.0) for hyperscaler platforms [AWS, GCP, Azure and Databricks] :
- Is pip installable from PyPi for its respective hyperscaler platforms.
- Supports model training and deployment to hyperscaler environment.
- Supports deployment to SAP Business Technology Platform Kyma environment.
- Supports inferencing with hyperscaler deployed as well as Kyma deployed models.
- Supports writing inferenced results back to SAP Datasphere.
-
SAP Datasphere tenant instance, with connectivity established to the remote data sources, and views exposed, that can be consumed by FedML.
-
Access to corresponding Machine learning Platforms with appropriate configurations. See Configuration section.
