KServe: A Robust and Extensible Cloud Native Model Server

If you are familiar with Kubeflow, you know KFServing as the platform's model server and inference engine. In September last year, the KFServing project has gone through a transformation to become KServe. KServe is now an independent component graduating from the Kubeflow project, apart from the name change. The separation allows KServe to evolve as a separate, cloud native inference engine deployed as a standalone model server. Of course, it will continue to have tight integration with Kubeflow, but they would be treated and maintained as independent open source projects.
