Union.ai, a leader in AI orchestration, has launched Flyte 2.0, the next generation of its open-source orchestration engine tailored for modern AI, machine learning, and agentic workloads. Available now in private beta through Union’s platform, Flyte 2.0 offers a dynamic, fault-tolerant, and resource-aware framework to manage the complexities of contemporary AI systems.
Flyte 2.0 redefines orchestration to meet the demands of dynamic, long-running AI systems. Unlike traditional orchestrators that treat AI workloads as static batch jobs, Flyte 2.0 supports real-time adaptability. “Most orchestrators still assume AI workloads behave like batch jobs with a static DAG defining their workflows. But today’s systems are dynamic, long-running, and require infrastructure that adapts in real time,” said Ketan Umare, CEO and Co-Founder of Union.ai. “Flyte 2.0 is built to support this shift, combining a best-in-class developer experience with a resilient, scalable execution engine.” This makes it ideal for complex tasks like large language model pipelines and genomics workloads.
A standout feature of Flyte 2.0 is its pure Python authoring, which eliminates the need for custom domain-specific languages, allowing developers to write workflows directly in Python. This simplifies integration with existing codebases, streamlining development. The platform also offers robust debugging tools, including built-in observability for execution states, logs, and failures, with a live debugger supporting interactive reruns to address issues efficiently.
Flyte 2.0 excels in handling large-scale, parallel workflows with native multi-container pipelines and autoscaling capabilities, including scale-to-zero functionality to optimize infrastructure costs. Its crash-proof pipelines incorporate caching, retries, and custom error handling to ensure resilience and prevent single points of failure. Additionally, the platform supports dynamic orchestration with runtime decision-making, featuring branching logic, loops, and adaptive resource allocation while maintaining compatibility with static directed acyclic graphs when required.
Designed for enterprise needs, Flyte 2.0 includes guardrails such as automatic execution versioning, multi-tenancy support across development, staging, and production environments, and on-demand infrastructure provisioning. These features reduce costs and complexity while ensuring compliance in regulated environments. The platform’s scalability and observability make it a robust agent runtime for long-running, resource-diverse workflows, aligning with the broader Union 2.0 platform’s enterprise-grade capabilities.
Trusted by over 4,000 organizations, including Amazon, LinkedIn, and Stripe, Flyte has been downloaded tens of millions of times over nearly a decade. Flyte 2.0, now in private beta, advances this legacy by empowering enterprises to transform AI experiments into durable, production-ready systems. General availability is expected soon, with access available via www.union.ai or through community channels like Slack and Substack.
Union.ai empowers enterprises to orchestrate and ship mission-critical AI and agentic systems. Union.ai is the creator of Flyte, the industry’s leading open-source ML orchestrator, and Pandera, a widely adopted open-source data validation library. By unifying data, models, and compute, Union.ai provides the development layer of the modern AI stack, enabling companies to turn experiments into durable, production-ready AI systems with speed, efficiency, and confidence.
