🎭 Actors on Kubernetes for scalable Gen AI

Asya is a queue-based actor framework designed for orchestrating AI/ML workloads on Kubernetes, enabling independent scaling and dynamic pipelines. It allows data scientists to write pure Python functions while handling queues, routing, scaling, and monitoring with zero infrastructure code.

Features

01Independent scaling: Each actor scales 0→N based on its own queue depth.

02Zero infrastructure code: Write pure Python functions without dependencies for queues, routing, or retries.

03Dynamic pipelines: Routes are data, not code, allowing modification at runtime.

04Cost efficiency: KEDA autoscaling from zero to max, paying only for active processing.

Dropped this into robust pipeline and it just worked — ? actors on kubernetes for scalable gen ai. The maintainers are responsive to issues.
