Sony's Neural Network Libraries (nnabla) is a deep learning framework with a Python API over a C++11 core, designed for research, development, and production across desktops, HPC clusters, embedded devices, and servers. The project officially reached end of life on April 3, 2025, with no further development or security support.

Use cases

  • train neural networks in python
  • deep learning framework for research and production
  • run inference on embedded devices
  • gpu-accelerated neural network training with cuda
  • deploy neural networks to hpc clusters

When to choose

  • you need a lightweight deep learning framework with a C++ core and embedded/C runtime deployment
  • you are maintaining an existing nnabla-based codebase

When to avoid

  • starting a new project - the project is end-of-life with no security support
  • you need an actively maintained framework with current CUDA support
  • you need the latest model architectures or ecosystem tooling
