Overview

Today we are releasing Feast 0.13, which includes 3 new features:

  1. [Experimental] On demand feature views, which allow for consistently applied transformations in both training and online paths. This also introduces the concept of request data, which is data only available at the time of the prediction request, as potential inputs into these transformations (see docs)
  2. [Experimental] Python feature servers, which allow you to quickly deploy a local HTTP server to serve online features. Serverless deployments and java feature servers to come soon! (see docs)
  3. Feature views without entities, which allow you to specify features that should only be joined on event timestamps. You do not need lists of entities / entity values when defining and retrieving features from these feature views. (see docs)

Experimental features are subject to API changes in the near future as we collect feedback. If you have thoughts, please don’t hesitate to reach out to the Feast team!
