0.13.0

ZenML version 0.13.0 is chock-full with exciting features.

Custom Code Deployment is the
continuation of the Model Deployment story that we have been working on over the last few releases. Now
it is possible to deploy custom code along with your models using Kserve or Seldon.

With Spark this release also brings distributed processing into the ZenML toolkit.

Spinning up and configuring infrastructure is a difficult part of the MLOps journey
and can easily become a barrier to entry. Using our mlops-stacks
repository, it is now possible to spin up perfectly configured infrastructure with
the corresponding ZenML stack using the ZenML CLI.

As always, we've also included various bug fixes and lots of improvements to the documentation and our examples.

Breaking Changes

This release introduces a breaking change to the CLI by adjusting the access to
the stack component specific resources for secret-managers and
model-deployers to be more explicitly linked to the component. Here is how:

# `zenml secret register ...` becomes 
zenml secrets-manager secret register ...

# `zenml served_models list` becomes 
zenml model-deployer models list
