Overview of this book

Social networking sites see an average of 350 million uploads daily - a quantity impossible for humans to scan and analyze. Only AI can do this job at the required speed, and to leverage an AI application at its full potential, you need an efficient and scalable data storage pipeline. The Artificial Intelligence Infrastructure Workshop will teach you how to build and manage one. The Artificial Intelligence Infrastructure Workshop begins taking you through some real-world applications of AI. You’ll explore the layers of a data lake and get to grips with security, scalability, and maintainability. With the help of hands-on exercises, you’ll learn how to define the requirements for AI applications in your organization. This AI book will show you how to select a database for your system and run common queries on databases such as MySQL, MongoDB, and Cassandra. You’ll also design your own AI trading system to get a feel of the pipeline-based architecture. As you learn to implement a deep Q-learning algorithm to play the CartPole game, you’ll gain hands-on experience with PyTorch. Finally, you’ll explore ways to run machine learning models in production as part of an AI application. By the end of the book, you’ll have learned how to build and deploy your own AI software at scale, using various tools, API frameworks, and serialization methods.

12. Productionizing Your AI Applications

Overview

In this chapter, we’ll tie a lot of things together that we have covered in the book. The end goal of an AI application should always be to bring business value. That means all the great models that are created by data scientists should be put into production. It’s quite difficult to productionize and maintain an application that contains one or more machine learning models. In this chapter, we’ll discuss three major options for productionizing an AI application, so you’ll be well equipped to pick a method for your situation.

By the end of this chapter, you will be able to describe the steps it takes to run a machine learning model in production, list a few common options to run models in production, and design and implement a continuous delivery pipeline for models.
