Introduction
MLOps
What is MLOps?
MLOps Stands for Machine Learning Operations
MLOps is a set of practices to design, deploy, maintain and monitor machine learning models across test, staging, and
production environments continuously, reliably, and efficiently.

Origin of MLOps
Inspired by DevOps:
Late 2000s: DevOps introduced practices for collaboration between development and operations teams, emphasizing automation, CI/CD pipelines,
and infrastructure as code, and these are the origin or root of MLOps
Rise of Machine Learning (2010s):
Explosion in ML adoption highlighted challenges in deployment, reproducibility, and scaling.
Challenges in ML Lifecycle:
Fragmented workflows.
Reproducibility and scalability issues.
Monitoring model drift and performance in production.
Formalization (2015–2020):
Google, AWS, and others developed ML lifecycle frameworks.
Tools like MLflow, Kubeflow, and TFX emerged.
DevOps adapted for ML-specific needs.
Current Landscape:
Standardized MLOps practices with cloud-native tools (e.g., Kubernetes, SageMaker).
Focus on automation, monitoring, and explainability. @Sandip Das
Mature tooling ecosystem for end-to-end workflows.
