Overview

Time-series data is everywhere, from sensor logs and financial transactions to user activity and supply chain metrics. But extracting insights from it reliably and at scale takes more than a good model. It requires robust preprocessing, flexible training, repeatable pipelines, and always-on monitoring.

Cake delivers a full time-series analysis stack that is built on open-source tools and optimized for enterprise AI workflows. You can ingest, clean, and align time-based data using AirByte or dbt, build models with frameworks like Darts, PyTorch, or XGBoost, and deploy workflows using Kubeflow Pipelines. With built-in experiment tracking, observability, and compliance, your time-series pipelines don’t just work; they scale.

And because Cake is modular and cloud agnostic, you can integrate the latest open-source advances while avoiding the cost and rigidity of managed AI platforms.

Key benefits

  • Accelerate time-series workflows: Move from data ingestion to model deployment with reusable, pre-integrated tools.

  • Deploy across environments: Run pipelines on any cloud, hybrid setup, or edge environment.

  • Use the best open-source models: Train with Darts, Neural Prophet, PyTorch, and more without relying on black-box solutions.

  • Detect issues before they scale: Monitor real-time data streams and trigger retraining as patterns shift.

  • Reduce cost and risk: Avoid vendor lock-in and manage sensitive time-series data on your own infrastructure.

THE CAKE DIFFERENCE

Thinline

 

From static trends to dynamic
time-aware systems

vendor-approach-icon

Manual analysis & flat models

Basic tools that miss temporal complexity: Traditional workflows rely on descriptive stats and single-signal trends.

  • Built in spreadsheets or dashboards with limited automation
  • Hard to incorporate seasonality, lags, or external signals
  • Fails to adapt to change or detect subtle anomalies
  • No versioning, observability, or integration with downstream systems
