Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning in Business
Artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) are crucial for driving top and bottom-line improvements across organizations. However, putting ML models into production at scale is challenging. Manual workflows slow down the development process, increase costs, and compromise the quality of the final product.
Introducing Machine Learning Ops (MLOps)
Machine learning operations (MLOps) applies DevOps principles to ML systems, enabling the industrialization and streamlining of the process from development to production deployment at scale. PwC Australia’s Machine Learning Ops Accelerator provides standardized processes and technology capabilities to improve the operationalization of AI/ML models.
Solution Overview
PwC’s solution comprises seven key integrated capabilities and iterative steps, enabling continuous integration, continuous delivery, continuous training, and continuous monitoring of ML use cases. The solution is built on top of AWS-native services, delivering a fit-for-purpose solution that easily integrates into ML use cases across all industries.
PwC Machine Learning Ops Accelerator Architecture
The solution uses Amazon SageMaker and serverless technology to keep performance and scalability high and running costs low. It provides persona-driven access entitlement for ML engineers and data scientists to automate deployment of pipelines and rapidly respond to model quality changes.
Solution Walkthrough
The solution is driven from a configuration YAML file per model, containing all the details required to run the solution. ML engineers can configure the file and trigger the MLOps pipeline, automating the building, deployment, and maintenance of ML models.
Conclusion
MLOps is critical for any organization aiming to deploy ML models in production systems at scale. PwC’s solution, powered by AWS native ML services, helps adopt MLOps practices to speed up the AI journey and gain more value from ML models.
