Infrastructure as Code (IaC) for ML defines and manages ML infrastructure, including GPU clusters, serving endpoints, and pipelines, through version-controlled configuration files.
ML Observability
ML observability is the ability to understand the internal state of ML systems through monitoring, logging, tracing, and analysis of models, data, and infrastructure.
Model Rollback
Model rollback is the process of reverting a production ML model to a previous version when the current version exhibits issues like degraded performance or unexpected behavior.
KV Cache
KV cache stores the key and value tensors from previous tokens during LLM inference, avoiding redundant computation and dramatically speeding up autoregressive text generation.
Continuous Batching
Continuous batching dynamically adds new inference requests to an active batch as existing requests complete, maximizing GPU utilization for LLM serving.
Model Optimization
Model optimization is the process of improving an ML model for production deployment by reducing size, increasing speed, and lowering resource requirements while maintaining quality.
Shadow Deployment
Shadow deployment runs a new ML model alongside the production model, sending real traffic to both but only serving responses from the current model, to validate the new model safely.
Model Serving Cost
Model serving cost is the total expense of running ML inference in production, including compute, memory, storage, networking, and operational overhead.
Model Caching
Model caching stores model predictions, intermediate computations, or model weights in fast-access memory to reduce latency, compute costs, and loading times.
