Hopsworks

The core offering is a modular AI Lakehouse that includes an advanced, Python-centric feature store. This platform centralizes and governs data for AI models, enabling organizations to build and operate batch, real-time, and large language model (LLM) systems. It is designed to work with existing data ecosystems, supporting open table formats like Hudi, Delta, and Iceberg without requiring data migration. Key features include a high-performance query service, vector and similarity search for generative AI applications, feature monitoring, and robust data governance. Hopsworks supports popular frameworks such as Spark, TensorFlow, and PyTorch and can be deployed on-premises or on any major cloud provider like AWS, Azure, and GCP.

Hopsworks operates on a business model that includes open-source, self-managed commercial, and fully-managed cloud services. The platform is offered in a free community version and a commercial enterprise version with advanced features. The company generates revenue by selling its platform to enterprise clients, helping them to manage the entire MLOps lifecycle, from development to production. Its target clients are data science and engineering teams in various industries, with customers including American-First Credit Union, PaddyPower-Betfair, and the Swedish Public Employment Service.
