About ModelDB
ModelDB is an open-source system for versioning machine learning models, including code, data, config, and environment, and tracking metadata across the model lifecycle. It supports experiment management, performance dashboards, and tracking from development through deployment and monitoring.
It provides Python and Scala clients for logging from training code and can be deployed with Docker Compose or Kubernetes. Local setup requires Docker and a backend config file, and the Python client is installed via the verta package.
Key features
- Version models including code, data, config, and environment
- Log metrics, artifacts, tags, hyperparameters, and user information
- Git-like operations on models
- Dashboards for model performance and reporting
- Python and Scala clients for logging from training code
- Deploys with Docker Compose or Kubernetes via Helm
Best for: Machine learning teams that need to version models and track experiments across the lifecycle.
Good for
- Versions code, data, config, and environment for reproducibility
- Supports Docker Compose and Kubernetes deployment options
- Works with TensorFlow and PyTorch with Python and Scala clients
Watch out for
- Docker Compose setup requires backend/config/config.yaml to be present
- Hosted use requires contacting [email protected]
