Getting your models into production is the fundamental challenge of machine learning. MLOps offers a set of proven principles aimed at solving this problem in a reliable and automated way. This insightful guide takes you through what MLOps is (and how it differs from DevOps) and shows you how to put it into practice to operationalize your machine learning models.Current and aspiring machine learning engineers--or anyone familiar with data science and Python--will build a foundation in MLOps tools and methods (along with AutoML and monitoring and logging), then learn how to implement them in AWS, Microsoft Azure, and Google Cloud. The faster you deliver a machine learning system that works, the faster you can focus on the business problems you're trying to crack. This book gives you a head start.You'll discover how to:Apply DevOps best practices to machine learningBuild production machine learning systems and maintain themMonitor, instrument, load-test, and operationalize machine learning systemsChoose the correct MLOps tools for a given machine learning taskRun machine learning models on a variety of platforms and devices, including mobile phones and specialized hardware

Many organizations today have begun to modernize their Windows workloads to take full advantage of cloud economics. If you're a C# developer at one of these companies, you need options for rehosting, replatforming, and refactoring your existing .NET Framework applications. This practical book guides you through the process of converting your monolithic application to microservices on AWS. Authors Noah Gift, founder of Pragmatic AI Labs, and James Charlesworth, engineering manager at Pendo, take you through the depth and breadth of .NET tools on AWS. You'll examine modernization techniques and pathways for incorporating Linux and Windows containers and serverless architecture to build, maintain, and scale modern .NET apps on AWS. With this book, you'll learn how to make your applications more modern, resilient, and cost-effective. Get started building solutions with C# on AWS Learn DevOps best practices for AWS Explore the development tools and services that AWS provides Successfully migrate a legacy .NET application to AWS Develop serverless .NET microservices on AWS Containerize your .NET applications and move into the cloud Monitor and test your AWS .NET applications Build cloud native solutions that combine the best of the .NET platform and AWS

Much has changed in technology over the past decade. Data is hot, the cloud is ubiquitous, and many organizations need some form of automation. Throughout these transformations, Python has become one of the most popular languages in the world. This practical resource shows you how to use Python for everyday Linux systems administration tasks with todays most useful DevOps tools, including Docker, Kubernetes, and Terraform.Learning how to interact and automate with Linux is essential for millions of professionals. Python makes it much easier. With this book, youll learn how to develop software and solve problems using containers, as well as how to monitor, instrument, load-test, and operationalize your software.
