MLOps on a Budget

You do not need a platform team to ship models reliably. A pragmatic MLOps stack for small teams using containers, CI/CD, and managed cloud.

#mlops#ci-cd#docker#cloud

Reliable without the platform team

You can get most of the value of MLOps with a handful of well-chosen tools.

Containers first

Package the model service in Docker. Reproducible builds remove a whole class of "works on my machine" failures.

Automate the boring parts

A simple CI/CD pipeline that lints, tests, builds, and deploys beats an elaborate one nobody maintains.

Observe before you optimize

Log inputs, outputs, and latency. You cannot improve what you cannot see.
