Flyte

Flyte is an open source orchestration platform for managing AI workloads, data processing pipelines, and model deployment across distributed infrastructure.

Flyte functions as a durable runtime for AI workflows, including model training, inference, and agentic systems. It allows developers to write workflows in Python, TypeScript, Rust, Go, or Mojo without proprietary domain-specific languages. The system is infrastructure-aware, capable of detecting resource-related failures like OOM kills or GPU preemptions and resubmitting tasks with updated configurations. It tracks inputs and outputs for every step, enabling stateful resumption instead of restarting pipelines from the beginning. Integration support includes Streamlit, FastAPI, vLLM, SGLang, and Ollama to handle serving, scaling, and infrastructure plumbing. The platform supports dynamic branching and looping logic for complex control flows rather than relying on static DAGs.
