๐Ÿš€ What's New in CAIP after 25-PI5?โ€‹

25-PI5 (August 26 โ€“ October 20, 2025) launched Managed Kubeflow in China and advanced CAIP Offboard v1/v1.5 pipeline, experiment-tracking, CAIP SDK agent, and Live Inference capabilities, while CAIP Offboard v2 added customer-facing API and portal controls.

๐Ÿ–ฅ๏ธ CAIP Offboard v1 / v1.5: Classic & Managed Kubeflowโ€‹

โœจ New Featuresโ€‹

๐ŸŒ Managed Kubeflow Availabilityโ€‹

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


๐Ÿ”€ Pipelines & Servingโ€‹

CAIP SDK 4.6.0 restored pipeline updates and secret management, while 3.14.2 restored Kubeflow Pipelines compatibility. Streamlit deployment action 1.0.6 introduced atomic deployments and rollback, so unsuccessful deployments did not leave an application partially updated.


๐Ÿค– CAIP SDK Agentsโ€‹

The CAIP SDK Agent offering added initialization for FastAPI, MCP, and A2A agents, a PGVector tool, MCP integration improvements, and agent metrics. Teams could also validate a deployed agent's ingress connection directly from the CLI, apply stage-specific Helm settings for different environments, and expose agents through DNS path-based routes, including MCP subroutes.


๐ŸŽฏ Live Inferenceโ€‹

Live Inference added model-schema validation, an API client, and a live-prediction endpoint workflow. These capabilities made it easier for CAIP Offboard v1/v1.5 teams to validate a model integration and connect an application to a deployed live-inference service.


๐Ÿ“ˆ Training & Experiment Trackingโ€‹

MLflow became available through ingress and adopted clearer Managed Kubeflow names, making the experiment-tracking service easier for customers to find and access.


๐Ÿ“ฆ Repositories in This Releaseโ€‹

  • caip-sdk โ€” pipeline updates, secrets, Kubeflow Pipelines compatibility, and CAIP SDK Agent capabilities.

๐Ÿ†• CAIP Offboard v2: All-New CAIPโ€‹

โœจ New Featuresโ€‹

๐Ÿค– LLM APIโ€‹

LLM API keys became available, giving customers a dedicated way to authenticate their LLM API integrations. Image and embedding models also became available in the supported environments, expanding the model capabilities teams could use through the platform.


๐ŸŒ Web Portalโ€‹

The portal introduced API-key management, CDH link management, and cost visibility, bringing these important customer controls and information into one experience.
