Features

• Run serverless workloads using a friendly Python interface
• Autoscaling and automatic scale-to-zero
• Read large files at the edge using distributed, cross-region storage
• Connect bare-metal nodes to your cluster with a single cURL command
• Manage your fleet of servers using a Tailscale-powered service mesh
• Securely run workloads with end-to-end encryption through WireGuard

How Does It Work?

Run Serverless Workloads in Pure Python

Add an endpoint decorator to your code, and you'll get a load-balanced HTTP endpoint (with auth!) to invoke your code.

You can also run long-running functions with @function, deploy task queues using @task_queue, and schedule jobs with @schedule:

from beta9 import endpoint


# This will run on a remote A100-40 in your cluster
@endpoint(cpu=1, memory=128, gpu="A100-40")
def square(i: int):
    return i**2

Deploy with a single command:

$ beta9 deploy app.py:square --name inference
=> Building image
=> Using cached image
=> Deployed 🎉

curl -X POST 'https://inference.beam.cloud/v1' \
-H 'Authorization: Bearer [YOUR_AUTH_TOKEN]' \
-H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
-d '{}'

Run on Bare-Metal Servers Around the World

Connect any GPU to your cluster with one CLI command and a cURL.

$ beta9 machine create --pool lambda-a100-40

=> Created machine with ID: '9541cbd2'. Use the following command to set up the node:

#!/bin/bash
sudo curl -L -o agent https://release.beam.cloud/agent/agent && \
sudo chmod +x agent && \
sudo ./agent --token "AUTH_TOKEN" \
  --machine-id "9541cbd2" \
  --tailscale-url "" \
  --tailscale-auth "AUTH_TOKEN" \
  --pool-name "lambda-a100-40" \
  --provider-name "lambda"

You can run this install script on your VM to connect it to your cluster.

Manage Your CPU or GPU Fleet

Manage your distributed cross-region cluster using a centralized control plane.

$ beta9 machine list

| ID       | CPU     | Memory     | GPU     | Status     | Pool        |
|----------|---------|------------|---------|------------|-------------|
| edc9c2d2 | 30,000m | 222.16 GiB | A10G    | registered | lambda-a10g |
| d87ad026 | 30,000m | 216.25 GiB | A100-40 | registered | gcp-a100-40 |

Local Installation

You can run Beta9 locally, or in an existing Kubernetes cluster using our Helm chart.

Setting Up the Server

k3d is used for local development. You'll need Docker to get started.

To use our fully automated setup, run the setup make target.

make setup

Setting Up the SDK

The SDK is written in Python. You'll need Python 3.8 or higher. Use the setup-sdk make target to get started.

make setup-sdk

Using the SDK

After you've setup the server and SDK, check out the SDK readme here.
