Supercharge Your ML Workflows

Unlock the full potential of your machine learning projects with ZenML, a flexible alternative to AWS SageMaker. While SageMaker offers a comprehensive cloud platform for ML, ZenML provides a vendor-neutral approach to building, training, and deploying high-quality models at scale. ZenML's intuitive workflow management capabilities extend beyond a single cloud provider, offering the flexibility to work across various environments and tools. Unlike SageMaker's AWS-centric ecosystem, ZenML allows you to accelerate your time-to-market and drive innovation across your organization without being locked into a specific cloud infrastructure, giving you the freedom to adapt your ML workflows as your needs evolve.

Run the same workloads on any cloud to gain strategic flexibility

  • ZenML does not tie your work to one cloud.
  • Define infrastructure as stack components independent of your code.
  • Run any code on any stack with minimum fuss.

50+ integrations with the most popular cloud and open-source tools

  • From experiment trackers like MLflow and Weights & Biases to model deployers like Seldon and BentoML, ZenML has integrations for tools across the lifecycle.
  • Flexibly run workflows across all clouds or orchestration tools such as Airflow or Kubeflow.
  • AWS, GCP, and Azure integrations all supported out of the box.

Avoid getting locked in to a vendor

  • Avoid tangling up code with tooling libraries that make it hard to transition.
  • Easily set up multiple stacks for different teams with different requirements.
  • Switch between tools and platforms seamlessly.
