chapter 46
model serving, ci/cd, and mlops
serving a model means handling inputs, versions, routes, batch jobs, ci gates, rollback, and production failures deliberately.
model serving, ci/cd, and mlops
Serving a model is software work with model-specific failure modes. This chapter practices request validation, batch versus realtime tradeoffs, runtime config, CI gates, rollout decisions, and a tiny server handoff.
The exercises use small Python dictionaries and lists so every check can run in the browser. Real-world tools may be larger, but the review shape stays the same: input, decision, evidence, blocker, and next step.
By the end of the chapter, learners should be able to turn this topic into a concrete handoff instead of a vague model claim.
