What is Covalent?

Covalent is a Python library for AI/ML engineers, developers, and researchers. It provides a straightforward approach to running compute jobs, like LLMs, generative AI, and scientific research, on various cloud platforms or on-prem clusters.

Run Code Anywhere: Execute Python functions in any cloud or on-prem cluster by changing just a single line of code.

It is as simple as swapping the decorator with our executor plugins. Choose from existing plugins or create custom ones for tailored interactions with any infrastructure.

Abstraction of Infrastructure Management: Abstract the complexities of cloud consoles, terraform, or IaC in the background.
Serverless Infrastructure: Automatically converts any infrastructure, including on-prem SLURM clusters or cloud compute, into a serverless setup.

For AI/ML Practitioners and Developers For Researchers
  • Robust Compute Backend: Ideal as a backend compute framework for AI/ML applications, Large Language Models (LLMs), Generative AI, and more.
  • Cloud-Agnostic Execution: Execute high-compute tasks seamlessly across different cloud environments.
  • Infrastructure Abstraction: Directly use computing resources while keeping your business code independent from the infrastructure/resource definitions.
  • Local-Like Access: Effortlessly connect to compute resources from your laptop, eliminating the need for SSH or complex scripts.
  • Unified Interface Across Environments: Consistent experience with on-prem HPC clusters and cloud platforms like SLURM, PBS, LSF, AWS, GCP, Azure.
  • Real-Time Monitoring Monitoring: User-friendly UI for real-time monitoring, enabling cost-effective and iterative R&D.
