Welcome ๐Ÿ‘‹

DataTunerX (DTX) is designed as a cloud-native solution integrated with distributed computing frameworks. Leveraging scalable GPU resources, it's a platform built for efficient fine-tuning LLMs with a focus on practical utility. Its core strength lies in facilitating batch fine-tuning tasks, enabling users to conduct multiple tasks concurrently within a single experiment. DTX encompasses essential capabilities such as dataset management, hyperparameter control, fine-tuning workflows, model management, model evaluation, model comparison inference, and a modular plugin system.

Technology stack:

DTX is built on cloud-native principles, employing a variety of Operators that consist of distinct Custom Resource Definitions (CRDs) and Controller logic. Developed primarily in Go, the implementation utilizes the operator-sdk toolkit. Operating within a Kubernetes (K8s) environment, DTX relies on the operator pattern for CRD development and management. Furthermore, DTX integrates with kuberay to harness distributed execution and inference capabilities.

Status:

v0.1.0 - Early development phase. CHANGELOG for details on recent updates.
