Bodywork is a simple framework for machine learning engineers to run containerised model-training workloads and deploy model-scoring services on Kubernetes. It is built by machine learning engineers, for machine learning engineers. It automates the repetitive tasks that most machine learning engineers think of as DevOps, allowing them to focus their time on what they do best - machine learning.

Bodywork is a command line tool that deploys machine learning pipelines to Kubernetes. It takes care of everything to do with containers and orchestration, so that you don't have to.
Bodywork is aimed at teams who want a solution for running ML pipelines and deploying models to Kubernetes. It is a lightweight and simpler alternative to Kubeflow, or to building your own platform based around a workflow orchestration tool like Apache Airflow, Argo Workflows or Dagster.
Any stage in a Bodywork pipeline can do one of two things:
You can use these to compose pipelines for many common ML use-cases, from serving pre-trained models to running continuous training on a schedule.
Defining a stage is as simple as developing an executable Python module or Jupyter notebook that performs the required tasks, and then committing it to your project's Git repository. You are free to structure your codebase as you wish and there are no new APIs to learn.
Stages are assembled into DAGs that define your pipeline's workflow. This and other key [configuration](user_guide.md#configuring-a-project-for-deployment-with-bodywork) is contained within a single bodywork.yaml file.
Bodywork removes the need for you to build and manage container images for any stage of your pipeline. It works by running all stages using Bodywork's custom container image. Each stage starts by pulling all the required files directly from your project's Git repository (e.g., from GitHub), pip-installing any required dependencies, and then running the stage's designated Python module (or Jupyter notebook).
Bodywork is distributed as a Python package - install it from PyPI:
Add a bodywork.yaml file to your Python project’s Git repo. The contents of this file describe how your project will be deployed:
Bodywork is used from the command-line to deploy projects to Kubernetes clusters. With a single command, you can start Bodywork containers (hosted by us on Docker Hub), that pull Python modules directly from your project’s Git repo, and run them:
You don’t need to build Docker images or understand how to configure Kuberentes resources. Bodywork will fill the gap between executable Python modules and operational jobs and services on Kubernetes.
If you’re new to Kubernetes then check out our guide to Kubernetes for ML - we’ll have you up-and-running with a test cluster on your laptop, in under 10 minutes.
The documentation for bodywork-core can be found here. This is the best place to start.
