What is MLOps? An Introduction to the World of Machine Learning Operations

May 10, 2022
Sam Temlock
More than ever, AI and machine learning (ML) are integral parts of our lives and are tightly coupled with the majority of the products we use on a daily basis. We use AI/ML in almost everything we can think of, from advertising to social media and just going about our daily lives! With the prevalent use of these tools and models, it is essential that, as IT systems and software became a disciplined practice in terms of development, maintainability, and reliability in the early 2000s, ML systems follow a similar trend. The field focused on developing such practices is currently loosely defined under many different titles (e.g., machine learning engineering, applied data science), but is most commonly known as MLOps, or Machine Learning Operations.
