Raw cpus and gpus are a property of the machines an installation has, so a node written against a cluster quietly stops meaning anything when the cluster is replaced. A node says "gpu-small" instead, and what that is stored here — editable, and read again every time the node is built, so changing the flavor changes what the next run gets. Memory joins the schema properly (`ram`, in MB, accepting "2G"), along with `duration_s` for how long a node is expected to take. That one is recorded and shown and nothing else yet: a statement for whoever is planning around the node, not a limit — the limit is still `timeout`. A flavor and a number for the same thing is refused, compared by value so an editor writing the whole object back with its defaults still round-trips. A name nothing stores is refused at the save, which covers the canvas and `fluksio sync` at once, and deleting one a node still asks for says which node. Four sizes are seeded on an installation that has none, and never re-seeded: re-adding one somebody deliberately removed is an argument nobody wins.

Fluksio
Fluksio is a node-based automation software that brings trust and reliability to your flow. It just works and looks good. Get started by running
pip install fluksio
fluksio serve
and you're ready to go.
For data science
You can turn your existing data science project into a flow by decorating your functions with @node ...
# myresearch/train.py
import fluksio
from fluksio import Port, node
@node(
requires=["dataset", Port("lr", "float")],
provides=[Port("loss", "float", stream=True), Port("weights", "artifact")],
device="gpu", device_policy="prefer",
)
def fit(dataset, lr, epochs=25):
for epoch in range(epochs):
loss = step(...)
yield {"loss": loss} # published as it happens, kept as a series
return {"weights": fluksio.save_artifact("weights.pt")}
... and passing them to a Flow:
# myresearch/pipeline.py
from fluksio import Flow, Port
from myresearch.data import prepare
from myresearch.evaluate import evaluate
from myresearch.train import fit
train = Flow("train", nodes=[prepare, fit, evaluate],
inputs=[Port("lr", "float", initial=0.01)], outputs=["score"])
Fluksio will automatically infer the order of nodes based on the inputs and outputs you defined. When everything is set, you can launch your first run as follows:
fluksio run train --lr 0.05 --wait

Some other features
- Flows: typed messages between nodes, wired by name, edited on a canvas or declared in code. Every change is a commit in a git repository you own.
- Runs: an experiment and a CI-style job are the same entity. Parameters, seed, result, per-node timings, artifacts and the commit it ran at.
- Dashboards: charts and controls bound to the same messages the flows carry, with no separate metrics pipeline.
- Remote workers:
pip install fluksio-workeron the GPU box; it dials out over one websocket, so nothing there has to be reachable.
Fluksio can also be used for facility automation. Visit us on fluksio.com or go straight to our documentation.
