# Cloudsmith for ML: Host, Proxy & Secure Your AI Models

You can now host and distribute your machine learning (ML) models and datasets using Cloudsmith. This brings the same security, governance, and cloud-native performance you already rely on for packages, containers, and binaries to your AI workflows.

## What’s New

- **Hugging Face SDK support**: Push and pull public or private models, datasets, and related assets with the standard `huggingface_hub` libraries.
- **Proxy and cache** public models and datasets from the Hugging Face Hub for improved reliability and speed.
- **Organize repositories **to fit your workflows. Store models alongside containers and packages, or separate them into dev, staging, and production.
- **Control access** with fine-grained permissions for who can view or distribute models. 
- **Enforce policies** on security, quality, and compliance using Enterprise Policy Management.

**Learn more in the** [Hugging Face repositories docs](https://docs.cloudsmith.com/formats/hugging-face-repository), and [contact us](/company/contact-us) to request early access.
