#299: The ability to efficiently manage and analyze data is crucial in today’s rapidly evolving tech landscape. One innovative solution that addresses this need is ModelKit. ModelKits are built on existing standards, ensuring compatibility with the tools your data scientists and developers already use.

In this episode, Darin and Viktor speak with Gorkem Ercan, CTO at Jozu, about KitOps, the open source DevOps project built to standardize packaging, reproduction, deployment, and tracking of AI / ML models, so it can be run anywhere, just like application code.
