Anyscale's annual conference for the Ray distributed-computing framework and AI infrastructure. The inaugural edition was planned for 27-28 May 2020 at the Grand Hyatt San Francisco (run with the Linux Foundation events team), postponed due to COVID-19 and held online 30 Sep-1 Oct 2020; 2021 was also online. In person in San Francisco from 2022 (Hyatt Regency 2022, Marriott Marquis 2023-2026). From 2026 registration again runs through the Linux Foundation and the summit co-locates the first vLLM Conference (hosted by Inferact). Twitter is the conference account @Ray_Summit_Live (linked from 2022/2023 sites); LinkedIn and YouTube are Anyscale's. In 2026 Nscale agreed to acquire Anyscale (reported).
