SERVE YOUR FEATURES IN PRODUCTION

Feast is an open-source feature store. It is the fastest path to
operationalizing analytic data for model training and online inference.

FEAST 0.20 ADDS API AND CONNECTOR IMPROVEMENTS

Feast 0.20 adds many connector improvements and bug fixes (DynamoDB, Snowflake,
Spark, Trino), Feast API changes, and more!


WHY FEAST?




OPERATIONALIZE YOUR ANALYTICS DATA

Feast operationalizes your offline data so it’s available for real-time
predictions, without building custom pipelines.


ENSURE CONSISTENCY ACROSS TRAINING AND SERVING

Feast guarantees you’re serving the same data to models during training and
inference, eliminating training-serving skew.




REUSE YOUR CURRENT INFRASTRUCTURE

Feast doesn’t require the deployment and ongoing management of dedicated
infrastructure.

It runs on top of cloud managed services; reusing your existing infrastructure
and spinning up new resources when needed.


STANDARDIZE YOUR DATA WORKFLOWS ACROSS TEAMS

Feast brings standardization and consistency to your data engineering workflows
across models and teams. Many teams use Feast as the foundation of their
internal ML platforms.

FAQ


WHAT IS A FEATURE STORE?

We wrote an article on this! What is a Feature Store?


IS FEAST A FEATURE COMPUTATION SYSTEM?

Partially. Feast enables on-demand transformations to generate features that
combine request data with precomputed features (e.g. time_since_last_purchase),
with plans to allow light-weight feature engineering.

Many users use Feast today in combination with a separate system that computes
feature values. Most often, these are pipelines written in SQL (e.g. managed
with dbt projects) or a Python Dataframe library and scheduled to run
periodically.

If you need a managed feature store that provides feature computation, check out
Tecton.


HOW DO I INSTALL AND RUN FEAST?

Feast is a Python library + optional CLI. You can install it using pip.

You might want to periodically run certain Feast commands (e.g. `feast
materialize-incremental`, which updates the online store.) We recommend using
schedulers such as Airflow or Cloud Composer for this.

For more details, please see the quickstart guide


WHAT DATA SOURCES / CLOUDS DOES FEAST SUPPORT?

Feast supports data sources in all major clouds (AWS, GCP, Azure, Snowflake) and
plugins to work with other data sources like Hive.

Feast also manages storing feature data in a more performant online store (e.g.
with Redis, DynamoDB, Datastore, Postgres), and enables pushing directly to this
(e.g. from streaming sources like Kafka).

See more details at third party integrations


WHAT ARE BEST PRACTICES FOR USING FEAST TO POWER PRODUCTION ML SYSTEMS?

For guidance on how to structure your feature repos, how to setup regular
materialization of feature data, and how to deploy Feast in production, see our
guide Running Feast in Production


HOW PERFORMANT / SCALABLE IS FEAST?

Feast is designed to work at scale and support low latency online serving. We
support different deployment patterns to meet different operational requirements
(see guide)

See our benchmark post (which comes with a benchmark suite on GitHub)/ In
benchmarks, we’ve seen single entity p99 read times to be <10 ms with a python
feature server on Redis and <1 ms with a java feature server. Feast also is
performant (p99 < 20ms in benchmarks) in batch online retrieval.


WHO USES FEAST?

Gojek, Shopify, Salesforce, Twitter, Postmates, Robinhood, Porch, and Zulily are
some examples of teams that are currently using the Feast Feature Store.

Many teams use Feast to support ML use cases like fraud detection or recommender
systems. Users range from researchers to smaller teams starting their ML
platforms to large mature teams like Twitter / Shopify.


IS FEAST A DATABASE?

No. Feast is a tool that manages data stored in other systems (e.g. BigQuery,
Cloud Firestore, Redshift, DynamoDB). It is not a database, but it helps manage
data stored in other systems.
