Abstract: MLOps holds the key to accelerating the development and deployment of AI, so that enterprises can derive continuous business value, deploy and monitor a growing amount of AI applications in production. But in our journey to create continuous development and delivery (CI/CD) of data and ML intensive applications, we often need to integrate many tools to make deployment of AI simpler, more efficient and scalable, and to account for a growing set of use cases of growing complexity. This is a difficult, time and labor-intensive task. Is there finally an open source tool which can orchestrate all of the process, abstract away the complexity while automatically delivering scalable and production ready deployments?
In this workshop we will explore the concept of MLOps Orchestration and how it can simplify the process of getting data science to production in any environment (multi-cloud, on-prem, hybrid), from the step of data collection and preparation (across real-time / streaming, historic, structured, or unstructured data), through automated model training to model deployment and monitoring. We will demonstrate how to drastically cut down the time and efforts needed to get data science to production. We’ll show how to map a business problem into an automated ML production pipeline and identify the right tools for the job, and ultimately how to run Al models in production at scale to accelerate business value with AI – all using open source technologies. The session will include a live demo and real customer case studies across use cases such as fraud prevention, real-time recommendation engines and NLP.
