IBM Research has released the Granite family of open source decoder-only code models ranging from 3 to 34 billion parameters.
The models are available in base and instruction-tuned variants optimised for enterprise software development workflows like code generation, fixing, explanation, and modernisation tasks.
Benchmarks show the Granite models match state-of-the-art performance among open source code LLMs across multiple coding tasks and programming languages.
The models leverage training data from sources like GitHub, CodeNet, and synthetic code-instruction pairs.
IBM is open sourcing the Granite code models under Apache 2.0 to enable open innovation and provide high-performing, cost-efficient foundation models for enterprises to build generative AI tools for developers.
