Ray.io is the official website for Ray, an open-source, unified framework designed to scale AI and Python workloads across various computing environments, from a laptop to a large cluster. It simplifies the development of complex distributed applications by providing a flexible and intuitive API. Key characteristics include its ability to seamlessly integrate with popular machine learning libraries such as PyTorch, TensorFlow, and Hugging Face, enabling the acceleration of tasks like reinforcement learning, data processing, and large language model serving. The framework promotes an extensive ecosystem of tools and libraries, fostering community-driven development and adoption. While Ray itself is free to use, its widespread adoption forms the foundation for commercial offerings provided by companies like Anyscale (the primary maintainer), which offers managed services and enterprise support built on the Ray ecosystem.
