Model Management

NineData's model management capabilities allow administrators to configure, save, and maintain custom AI models on the platform. Custom models can be seamlessly integrated into all AI-driven features of NineData, such as TEXT2SQL conversion, object code generation, ChatDBA chatbot, or knowledge base vectorization, to enhance data processing efficiency and customization capabilities.

To meet users' needs for different models, NineData has introduced the model management feature. Through this feature, users can enter other large models into the NineData platform and allow all AI functions within the NineData platform to use these large models.
