Announcing the Anyscale Technical Webinar Series: Learn Ray and Distributed AI

We’re excited to introduce the Anyscale Technical Webinar Series, a new series of webinars designed to help engineers, data scientists, and ML practitioners get hands-on practice with Ray and distributed AI workloads.

Last month, we hosted our first webinar where hundreds of community members went through an introduction to Anyscale and Ray AI libraries. The webinar, Introduction to Anyscale and Ray AI Libraries, is available on demand now.  

Going forward, each webinar will focus on real-world AI use cases and distributed computing challenges. Instructors will walk through technical notebooks, live demos, and interactive Q&A. Whether you’re just getting started with Ray or looking to optimize large-scale workloads, this series will provide practical insights to accelerate your AI and ML projects.

LinkWhat to Expect

Each session in the Anyscale Technical Webinar Series will follow the same structured format:

• 10-minute introduction – Why Ray? Why Anyscale?

• 40-minute technical deep dive – Hands-on notebook walkthrough

• 10-minute live Q&A – Get answers to your questions in real-time

This series runs monthly on the last Wednesday of each month.
