May 2026 monthly summary: Achieved large-scale migration to the Anyscale SDK 2026 compute config schema across Ray work streams, delivering stable, test-ready configurations and aligning test entries. Key delivery: migrated 21 train compute configs with 15 tests updated (ray-project/ray); migrated 4 LLM GPU-head/batch compute configs with 10 tests; migrated 5 multimodal inference configs with 5 tests; migrated 12 serve/runtime_env configs with 10 tests; migrated 9 dataset configs with 8 tests; total across ray project plus 19 config files in dentiny/ray with 10 tests updated. Implemented schema changes (cloud/cloud name, head_node, worker_nodes, min_nodes, max_nodes, market_type, advanced_instance_config), removed legacy fields, and added explicit resource sizing where needed to ensure schedulability. Also delivered CI improvements: gating by RAYCI_SELECT for image builds and enhanced annotation gating; bug fix for billing tag application in advanced_instance_config; temporary Azure Container Registry push disable in the release pipeline with documented re-enable path. Overall, improved business value via more reliable tests, easier maintenance, and safer CI pipelines across two repos.
