Breaking Silos: Unifying DevOps and MLOps into a Cohesive Software Supply Chain - Part 3

The synergy between DevOps and MLOps is more crucial now than ever. However, merging these two paradigms into a coherent software supply chain poses a unique set of challenges that can leave teams feeling overwhelmed. From the complexities of managing model dependencies to adapting conventional CI/CD tools for advanced machine learning (ML) workflows, the path to integration isn’t without its twists and turns.

Why Kubernetes Is Becoming the Platform of Choice for Running AI/MLOps Workloads

Artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning operations (MLOps) have become crucial across a wide swath of industries, with the two technologies working in tandem to provide value. AI enables data-driven insights and automation, while MLOps ensures efficient management of AI models throughout their lifecycle. With AI’s growing complexity and scale, organizations need robust infrastructure to manage intensive computational tasks, giving rise to platforms like Kubernetes.

Solving E-Commerce's Cold Start Problem with Azure ML

Imagine visiting an e-commerce site that instantly understands your preferences, offering tailored product recommendations from the first click. For our client, this vision was about creating a seamless, engaging experience for new users by providing immediate, personalized suggestions. Using Azure ML Studio, we turned this vision into reality by solving key challenges like the “cold start problem” and building a robust recommendation system. Here’s how we made it happen.

Breaking Silos: Unifying DevOps and MLOps into a Cohesive Software Supply Chain - Part 2

In this blog series, we will explore the importance of merging DevOps best practices with MLOps to bridge this gap, enhance an enterprise’s competitive edge, and improve decision-making through data-driven insights. Part one discussed the challenges of separate DevOps and MLOps pipelines and outlined a case for integration.

Breaking Silos: Unifying DevOps and MLOps into a Cohesive Software Supply Chain - Part 1

As businesses realized the potential of artificial intelligence (AI), the race began to incorporate machine learning operations (MLOps) into their commercial strategies. But the integration of machine learning (ML) into the real world proved challenging, and the vast gap between development and deployment was made clear. In fact, research from Gartner tells us 85% of AI and ML fail to reach production.

Monitor AWS Trainium and AWS Inferentia with Datadog for holistic visibility into ML infrastructure

AWS Inferentia and AWS Trainium are purpose-built AI chips that—with the AWS Neuron SDK—are used to build and deploy generative AI models. As models increasingly require a larger number of accelerated compute instances, observability plays a critical role in ML operations, empowering users to improve performance, diagnose and fix failures, and optimize resource utilization.

Charmed Kubeflow vs Kubeflow

Kubeflow is an open source MLOps platform that is designed to enable organizations to scale their ML initiatives and automate their workloads. It is a cloud-native solution that helps developers run the entire machine learning lifecycle within a single solution on Kubernetes. It can be used to develop, optimize and deploy models. This blog will walk you through the benefits of using an official distribution of the Kubeflow project.
