Unified: Where It’s All Going

When all three cloud services are available, the two use cases converge:
  • Data wrangling + AI pipelines + endpoints = one system
  • Orchestration + storage + retrieval unified
  • Table becomes the endpoint
Your training datasets and production APIs share the same infrastructure—versioning, lineage, and retrieval in the serving path.
