Abstract

This article presents and discuss the industrialization process of ML (Machine Learning) projects with a focus on the principles of MLOps (Machine Learning Operations) and the challenges encountered when putting an ML project into production. The paper also proposes a set of tools used in an MLOps context to facilitate the deployment of ML projects and their production release. This paper is a guide to discover the MLOps domain in its theoretical (MLOps concepts, pipeline and life cycle) and practical (technical and tools) aspects. MLOps must provide answers to the use of ML applications hosted on servers with high performance, also for applications embedded in equipment with minimal sizing, since we are talking about the fourth industrial revolution with the increase of number of sensors in the world generating a mass of data that must be efficiently processed and analyzed.
