**APIs profiled:** 31

Seldon is a Kubernetes-native MLOps platform that enables enterprises to deploy, monitor, manage, and explain machine learning models at scale. The platform provides REST and gRPC inference APIs that follow the Open Inference Protocol, enabling standardized model serving across frameworks including TensorFlow, PyTorch, and scikit-learn. Seldon Core 2 supports advanced deployment strategies such as A/B testing, canary rollouts, and shadow deployments through its Kubernetes-native architecture. The Seldon Enterprise Platform extends the open source core with a comprehensive REST API for managing deployments programmatically, including model drift detection via Alibi-Detect and explainability via the Alibi library. Seldon Deploy SDK provides a Python client for integrating with the platform API using OIDC and session-based authentication workflows.
