About ormb

ORMB is an open-source model registry for managing machine learning and deep learning models. It packages models as OCI artifacts and stores them in container image registries, in a workflow described as Docker for ML models.

You can use its command-line tool to save a local model folder to a local cache, push it to a remote registry, pull it back, and export it to a directory. Models are versioned with tags and use an ormbfile.yaml file to define the model folder structure. It works with registries such as Harbor and Docker Registry, and the repository includes documentation and tutorials for distribution and serving with Seldon Core.

It suits developers and machine learning teams who already work with container registries and want to create, version, share, and publish models using a similar process.
