๐Ÿš€ What's New in CAIP after 25-PI4?โ€‹

25-PI4 (July 1 โ€“ August 25, 2025) launched Managed Kubeflow in EMEA, improved CAIP Offboard v1/v1.5 agent development and notebook access, and extended LLM API availability and compatibility for more customer use cases.

๐ŸŒ Managed Kubeflow Availabilityโ€‹

Managed Kubeflow is now available in EMEA, giving teams in the region a managed, supported foundation for developing, running, and operating ML workloads.


๐Ÿ““ Notebooks & Developmentโ€‹

CAIP SDK 4.2.0โ€“4.5.1 added agent conversation history, component-store discovery and documentation, simpler agent initialization, protected intranet exposure, and per-agent Helm values. Recurring runs could also take their parameters from a file, making scheduled executions easier to repeat consistently without manually re-entering settings. Code Server notebook images included the GitHub Copilot extension and chat, and notebook images were published in China, expanding access to the available development environment.

CD4ML buckets began using S3 Intelligent-Tiering by default, while Vector DB and MLflow became available in additional locations, extending these managed data and experiment-tracking capabilities.
