No to confuse with this other company at https://manifold.io/ (io, not ai) which deprecated their https://www.torus.sh/ project :)

Or for that matter, the short lived distributed storage system from CoreOS.

Thanks for the plug saamm, I'm one of the creators of Pachyderm. I think Torus and Pachyderm would work very nicely together. You could go straight from developing code in the image Torus provides to deploying it on Pachyderm as a production pipeline that runs on new data as it comes in with just a few commands. Similarly, their Dockerized data science cookie-cutter could work nicely as a Pachyderm service, this woul…

Yes to containers! We are trying to make it as seamless as possible to be Docker first in all things. And not reinvent the devops wheel. It just needs to be adapted for the needs ot data scientists. Pachyderm is really cool. I will have to check it out. We've recently moved to Airflow for all our pipeline management... how does Pachyderm fit in that ecosystem?

Pachyderm's pipeline system covers much of the same functionality as Airflow's so there's generally not much reason to use both.
