Platform For AI:Create an experiment layer

Last Updated:Jun 22, 2026

An experiment domain can contain one or more experiment layers, each handling all traffic for that domain. Within a domain, traffic across layers is orthogonal (mutually independent), and parameters across layers are mutually exclusive. This topic describes how to create and manage experiment layers.

Prerequisites

You have created an experiment project. For more information, see Create an experiment project.

Create an experiment layer

  1. Go to the ABTest page.

    1. Log on to the PAI console.

    2. In the left-side navigation pane, click Workspaces. On the Workspaces page, click the name of the workspace that you want to manage.

    3. In the left-side navigation pane, choose Model Deployment > PAI-ABTest.

  2. In the navigation pane on the left of the PAI-ABTest page, choose Project management > Experiment Layers.
