Release NotesModel Lifecycle Stages
Models in W&B Inference use the following terminology for the stages of their lifecycle:- Generally Available: The model is fully supported and is recommended for use.
- Deprecated: The model is scheduled for removal. Customers should update to a recommended replacement as soon as possible.
- Retired: The model is no longer available. Any requests to retired models fail and return an
HTTP 404status code for all requests.
Deprecation Process
When deprecating a model, W&B will provide at least two weeks of notice on this page before the model is retired. We additionally attempt to notify recent users of a deprecated model via email and provide recommendations for replacement models. Models that are in the deprecated stage continue to serve requests.Deprecated Models
