LangChain announced the rebranding and expansion of its infrastructure services, called the LangGraph Platform, designed for deploying and scaling LangGraph applications. According to LangChain’s official blog, this move improves on the original LangGraph Cloud launched earlier this year by introducing a variety of deployment options.
New deployment options
The LangGraph platform now offers four deployment options:
- self-hosted lite: Free limited version that allows you to run up to 1 million nodes locally or self-hosted.
- Cloud SaaS: This is a fully managed service currently in beta and available to users on the LangSmith Plus or Enterprise plans.
- BYOC (Bring Your Own Cloud): You can deploy to your VPC through LangChain, which manages provisioning and maintenance, currently available on AWS.
- self-hosted company: Allows full deployment on your own infrastructure.
Components of the LangGraph Platform
The platform integrates key components such as LangGraph Server and LangGraph Studio along with CLI and SDK. It provides a comprehensive infrastructure solution for developers deploying agents at scale. LangGraph Server is optimized for processing large-scale jobs with features such as work queues, long-running agent support, and data persistence.
Improved developer experience
LangGraph Studio has been released as a desktop version for developers to debug locally. The platform’s API supports an interactive, context-aware agent environment with features such as streaming execution for real-time output, background execution for batch processing, and concurrency control.
future development
LangChain plans to introduce more features, including advanced authentication and intelligent caching, to further enhance the platform. This investment aims to simplify the complex infrastructure needed to support sophisticated agent applications.
Getting started
Developers interested in exploring the LangGraph platform can start with the self-hosted lite version or choose the Cloud SaaS version for broader accessibility. For deployments that require increased security, BYOC or self-hosted enterprise options are available.
