Roadmap
What is being built, in the order it is being built. No dates, because a date we published and missed would be worth less than the honesty of not giving one.
Now
Serving hardening. Continuous batching so that concurrent requests share a forward pass rather than queueing behind one another. A drain, so a machine can be taken out of service without failing the requests it is holding. Enforcement of the availability windows that are currently recorded and respected only at placement. Replicas of a slice, so a machine that goes away does not take a deployment with it.
RPM packaging. RHEL and SUSE, built against a glibc floor those distributions actually ship. Deliberately a separate piece of work rather than a flag on the Debian build.
Next
Serving several models at once. Today a deployment serves one and refuses the second with the command to stop the first. The refusal is honest and it is not where this should end.
Vision. A vision-language model reading an image, designed and not built. The architecture keeps tensor and shard descriptors modality-agnostic where that costs nothing, so this is an addition rather than a rewrite.
A richer console. The pages exist; what is missing is depth. Placement visible as a diagram, the audit trail filterable the way the CLI already allows, and adapters comparable side by side.
Later
Full fine-tuning, where the hardware justifies it. On a machine park it does not, and the arithmetic is on the fine-tuning page. On a small cluster of well-connected machines with cards, it might.
Tensor parallelism, so that several cards on one machine serve one request faster rather than only holding more.
Audio and video. Long-term scope. Nothing is designed.
Not planned
Pre-training a model from scratch. Not what this is for.
A hosted service. The entire proposition is that the software runs on your hardware. Offering to run it on ours would be selling the thing our customers are trying to leave.
Telemetry, however anonymous. Not a feature that has been deferred. It is a thing we will not add.
How this list changes
By customers asking. The serving-hardening work is at the top because three separate conversations arrived at the same missing piece within a month. If something you need is in "later" and it is blocking you, say so: that is the mechanism.
