Cortex

Cortex is an MLOps (Machine Learning Operations) platform designed to simplify and accelerate deployment of machine learning models into production.

It enables developers to transform trained ML models into production-ready APIs for real-time inference without managing underlying infrastructure. Cortex leverages Kubernetes, a container orchestration system, to provide seamless and scalable model serving.

Key features include automatic scaling based on traffic demand for low latency, efficient resource management that scales down when idle to reduce costs, and robust model monitoring to track performance.

Cortex offers flexible API setup, allowing customization of prediction logic and integration with CI/CD workflows. By abstracting infrastructure and MLOps complexities, it empowers developers and ML teams to deploy, manage, and scale models reliably and cost-effectively, ideal for real-time AI applications.
