# Model Service

This service is a smart-storage for models used in various Ai algorithms (SVM and CNN) in the system. It also stores a "default pointer" to the Ai model intended to be used by the system.  

The different Ai models can be accessed trough different endpoints.

This service requires a MinIO service and a relational database (possibly PostgreSQL). It does not initiate connection to other services.
