Overview of this book

TensorFlow as a machine learning (ML) library has matured into a production-ready ecosystem. This beginner’s book uses practical examples to enable you to build and deploy TensorFlow models using optimal settings that ensure long-term support without having to worry about library deprecation or being left behind when it comes to bug fixes or workarounds. The book begins by showing you how to refine your TensorFlow project and set it up for enterprise-level deployment. You’ll then learn how to choose a future-proof version of TensorFlow. As you advance, you’ll find out how to build and deploy models in a robust and stable environment by following recommended practices made available in TensorFlow Enterprise. This book also teaches you how to manage your services better and enhance the performance and reliability of your artificial intelligence (AI) applications. You’ll discover how to use various enterprise-ready services to accelerate your ML and AI workflows on Google Cloud Platform (GCP). Finally, you’ll scale your ML models and handle heavy workloads across CPUs, GPUs, and Cloud TPUs. By the end of this TensorFlow book, you’ll have learned the patterns needed for TensorFlow Enterprise model development, data pipelines, training, and deployment.

Section 3 – Scaling and Tuning ML Works

Having covered how to set up a training job through various means of TensorFlow Enterprise model development, now is the time to scale the training process by using a cluster of GPUs or TPUs. You will learn how to leverage distributed training strategies and implement hyperparameter tuning to scale and improve your model training experiment.

In this part, you will learn about how to set up GPUs and TPUs in a GCP environment for submitting a model training job in GCP. You also will learn about the latest hyperparameter tuning API and run it at scale using GCP resources.

This section comprises the following chapters:

  • Chapter 5, Training at Scale
  • Chapter 6, Hyperparameter Tuning
