About MXNet
Apache MXNet (incubating) is an open source deep learning framework. It is designed to provide flexible research prototyping and production. It offers efficiency, portability, and scalability, and allows you to combine symbolic and imperative programming. At its core, MXNet contains a dynamic dependency scheduler that automatically parallelizes both symbolic and imperative operations on the fly. A graph optimization layer on top of that makes symbolic execution fast and memory efficient.
You can use the Container Station web or command-line interface to create this framework.
