❓FAQ

General

1. What is Coretex.ai? Coretex.ai is a platform that allows users to work with datasets and experiments in a collaborative environment. It provides tools for managing data, running experiments, and storing experiment metrics and artifacts.

2. What is an Organization in Coretex.ai? In Coretex.ai, an Organization represents a company, team, department, institution, or any other organizational entity. When you register as a Coretex user, you belong to a specific Organization. If you are an individual user not belonging to any organization, a default organization will be created for you with you as the only member.

3. What are Datasets in Coretex.ai? Datasets are named collections of data samples of a certain type. You can upload datasets to the Coretex platform or generate them from scratch. While there are no limitations on the kind of datasets you can work with, Coretex provides a user interface (UI) that streamlines and simplifies data management for supported formats. Please refer to the Types page for more details on the supported data types.

4. What are Projects in Coretex.ai? Projects are logical groups that allow you to organize and separate the tasks and datasets you work on based on your objectives. A Project is the basic unit of collaboration between users in an Organization. Think of a Project as a domain of your work. When you start a new unit of work, you create a new Project, give it a name, and specify the type of task you're working on. Everything you create in Coretex resides inside a Project, and when you share a Project with your teammates, they gain instant access to all its content.

5. Can I change a Project once it's created? Once created, a Project can only change its name and visibility. It's important to select the correct type associated with a Project during its creation, as it determines the type of datasets you can add to it.

6. What is an Task in Coretex.ai? A Task in Coretex.ai is a set of code and configuration files that are stored within a Project. It is ready to be executed to process data. You can have multiple tasks within a Project, each serving a different purpose or objective.

7. What is a Run in Coretex.ai? A Run is a record of an actual execution of a Task on a selected dataset with specific experiment parameters. Each execution of a Task is stored as a single Run. In other words, a Run captures the results and outputs of running a Task with a particular set of configurations and inputs.

8. How does Coretex handle Task Runs? Coretex manages how and when your scheduled Task Run requests will be fulfilled. It ensures the proper execution of your tasks based on the specified configurations and data.

9. What kind of metrics and artifacts can be obtained from a Task Run? When a Task is executed, the corresponding Run can submit experiment metrics such as accuracy, loss, CPU and memory usage, disk I/O, and more. Additionally, it can store multiple artifacts including result summaries, experiment reports, intermediate results, and other relevant outputs.

Coretex CLI

1. What is Coretex CLI? Coretex CLI is a command line tool that allows users to interact with the Coretex.ai platform directly from their terminal. It provides a convenient way to execute commands and perform various tasks without relying on the web interface.

2. What are the benefits of using Coretex CLI? Using Coretex CLI offers several advantages:

  • You can connect your computer to Coretex.ai as a node and execute runs on it, allowing you to utilize the platform for free instead of incurring Coretex Cloud costs.

  • It enables reliable background data transfer between your computer and Coretex. While using the web UI for uploading or downloading datasets is faster, data transfer stops when you close the browser tab. Coretex CLI continues moving data in the background and intelligently resumes even if your computer is powered off.

  • If you have a self-managed compute cluster, Coretex CLI helps keep it updated by automatically checking for updates and installing the latest version. This saves you from manually managing updates.

  • Coretex CLI can be integrated into standard CI/CD toolchains, allowing you to control the experimentation flow from anywhere you can execute shell commands, including Jenkins pipelines.

3. How can I use Coretex CLI to connect my computer as a node? You can use Coretex CLI to connect your computer as a node to the Coretex.ai platform by executing specific commands. These commands establish the connection and enable you to execute experiments on your local machine.

4. Can Coretex CLI handle large dataset transfers? Yes, Coretex CLI is designed to handle large dataset transfers between your computer and Coretex reliably. Unlike the web interface, where data transfer stops when you close the browser tab, Coretex CLI continues transferring data in the background. Even if your computer is powered off, it intelligently resumes the transfer as soon as possible.

5. How can I keep my self-managed compute cluster updated with Coretex CLI? If you have a self-managed compute cluster and you have configured compute nodes using Coretex CLI, they will automatically check for updates. Once a new version of Coretex CLI is available, the compute nodes will update themselves to the latest version without requiring manual intervention.

6. Can I integrate Coretex CLI with my CI/CD toolchain? Yes, Coretex CLI can be easily integrated into your standard CI/CD toolchain. You can execute Coretex CLI commands as part of your Jenkins pipelines or any other CI/CD process that supports shell commands. This allows you to seamlessly incorporate Coretex.ai into your existing workflow.
