Model Deployment Workflow

Deploy a trained model to production with monitoring:

1. Export model to standardized format (ONNX, TorchScript, SavedModel)
2. Package model with dependencies in Docker container
3. Deploy to staging environment
4. Run integration tests against staging
5. Deploy canary (5% traffic) to production
6. Monitor latency and error rates for 1 hour
7. Promote to full production if metrics pass
8. Validation: p95 latency < 100ms, error rate < 0.1%

Container Template

FROM python:3.11-slim

COPY requirements.txt .
RUN pip install --no-cache-dir -r requirements.txt

COPY model/ /app/model/
COPY src/ /app/src/

HEALTHCHECK CMD curl -f http://localhost:8080/health || exit 1

EXPOSE 8080
CMD ["uvicorn", "src.server:app", "--host", "0.0.0.0", "--port", "8080"]

Serving Options

MLOps Pipeline Setup

Establish automated training and deployment:

1. Configure feature store (Feast, Tecton) for training data
2. Set up experiment tracking (MLflow, Weights & Biases)
3. Create training pipeline with hyperparameter logging
4. Register model in model registry with version metadata
5. Configure staging deployment triggered by registry events
6. Set up A/B testing infrastructure for model comparison
7. Enable drift monitoring with alerting
8. Validation: New models automatically evaluated against baseline

Feature Store Pattern

from feast import Entity, Feature, FeatureView, FileSource

user = Entity(name="user_id", value_type=ValueType.INT64)

user_features = FeatureView(
    name="user_features",
    entities=["user_id"],
    ttl=timedelta(days=1),
    features=[
        Feature(name="purchase_count_30d", dtype=ValueType.INT64),
        Feature(name="avg_order_value", dtype=ValueType.FLOAT),
    ],
    online=True,
    source=FileSource(path="data/user_features.parquet"),
)

Retraining Triggers

LLM Integration Workflow

Integrate LLM APIs into production applications:

1. Create provider abstraction layer for vendor flexibility
2. Implement retry logic with exponential backoff
3. Configure fallback to secondary provider
4. Set up token counting and context truncation
5. Add response caching for repeated queries
6. Implement cost tracking per request
7. Add structured output validation with Pydantic
8. Validation: Response parses correctly, cost within budget

Provider Abstraction

from abc import ABC, abstractmethod
from tenacity import retry, stop_after_attempt, wait_exponential

class LLMProvider(ABC):
    @abstractmethod
    def complete(self, prompt: str, **kwargs) -> str:
        pass

@retry(stop=stop_after_attempt(3), wait=wait_exponential(min=1, max=10))
def call_llm_with_retry(provider: LLMProvider, prompt: str) -> str:
    return provider.complete(prompt)

Cost Management

RAG System Implementation

Build retrieval-augmented generation pipeline:

1. Choose vector database (Pinecone, Qdrant, Weaviate)
2. Select embedding model based on quality/cost tradeoff
3. Implement document chunking strategy
4. Create ingestion pipeline with metadata extraction
5. Build retrieval with query embedding
6. Add reranking for relevance improvement
7. Format context and send to LLM
8. Validation: Response references retrieved context, no hallucinations

Vector Database Selection

Chunking Strategies

Model Monitoring

Monitor production models for drift and degradation:

1. Set up latency tracking (p50, p95, p99)
2. Configure error rate alerting
3. Implement input data drift detection
4. Track prediction distribution shifts
5. Log ground truth when available
6. Compare model versions with A/B metrics
7. Set up automated retraining triggers
8. Validation: Alerts fire before user-visible degradation

Drift Detection

from scipy.stats import ks_2samp

def detect_drift(reference, current, threshold=0.05):
    statistic, p_value = ks_2samp(reference, current)
    return {
        "drift_detected": p_value < threshold,
        "ks_statistic": statistic,
        "p_value": p_value
    }

Alert Thresholds
