Decision brief
Ray is a unified framework for scaling AI and Python applications, offering a core distributed runtime and AI libraries for accelerating ML workloads.
Good fit when
- When you need to perform distributed training, as Ray's Train library simplifies the setup and management of distributed training jobs.
- For scalable hyperparameter tuning, Ray's Tune library provides a powerful interface for optimizing hyperparameters across multiple nodes.
Avoid when
- If your project is limited to single-node development and does not require scaling across multiple machines or clusters.
- When the specific requirements of your project are better met by specialized tools that offer more tailored functionality for a particular task, such as TensorFlow for deep learning or PyTorch for GPU
