The Advantage of MLOps for Data Engineers
Data engineers are often tasked with blazing the trail to productionalizing machine learning for the whole organization, mainly based on their engineering background and familiarity with the intricacies and the behavior of data. This often leaves them with a very difficult task at hand.
Enter MLOps, a solution that proactively monitors and manages the lifecycle of machine learning models. With MLOps, data engineers can update, test, and validate deployments from a centralized hub no matter what types of models they are running.

Deployment
MLOps makes model deployment easy. Operations teams, not data scientists, can deploy models written in a variety of modern programming languages like Python and R onto modern runtime environments in the cloud or on-premise. Users of the MLOps system don’t have to know any of these technologies to drag and drop a model into the system, create a container, and deploy the model to a production environment.
Monitoring
MLOps gives you monitoring that is designed for machine learning. Monitoring includes service health, data drift, model accuracy, and proactive alerts that are sent to stakeholders using a variety of channels like email, Slack, and Pagerduty. With MLOps monitoring in place, your teams can deploy and manage thousands of models, and your business will be ready to scale production AI.
Lifecycle Management
Models need to be updated frequently and seamlessly. MLOps model lifecycle management supports the testing and warm-up of replacement models, A/B testing of new models against older versions, seamless rollout of updates, failover procedures, and full version control for simple rollback to prior model versions.
Model Governance
MLOps governance provides the integrations and capabilities you need to ensure consistent, repeatable, and reportable processes for your models in production. Key capabilities include access control for production models and systems, including integration to LDAP and role-based access control systems (RBAC), as well as approval flows, logging, version storage, and traceability of results for legal and regulatory compliance.
