Definition
MLOps enables organizations to deploy and maintain machine learning models in production reliably and efficiently. It encompasses version control for data and models, automated testing, continuous integration/continuous deployment (CI/CD) pipelines, and monitoring for model drift. By integrating operational best practices with ML workflows, MLOps reduces the gap between experimental model development and scalable production deployment, ensuring models remain accurate and relevant over time.
Summary
MLOps (Machine Learning Operations) is a set of practices that combines machine learning, DevOps, and data engineering to automate and streamline the lifecycle of ML models.
