Why Kedro?

Machine Learning Engineering
Kedro is the foundation for clean data science code. It borrows concepts from software engineering and applies them to machine-learning projects.
Handles Complexity
A Kedro project provides scaffolding for complex data and machine-learning pipelines. You spend less time on tedious "plumbing" and focus instead on solving new problems.
Standardisation
Kedro standardises how data science code is created and ensures teams collaborate to solve problems easily.
Production-Ready
Make a seamless transition from development to production with exploratory code that you can transition to reproducible, maintainable, and modular experiments.

Features

Pipeline Visualisation

Kedro-Viz is a blueprint of your data and machine-learning workflows. It provides data lineage, keeps track of machine-learning experiments, and makes it easier to collaborate with business stakeholders.
