MLOps.community meetup #8: Optimizing your ML workflow with Kubeflow 1.0 with Josh Bottom VP of Arrikto

MLOps.community

Linkedin, Spotify, Volvo, JP Morgan, and many other market leaders are leveraging Kubeflow to simplify the creation and the efficient deployment of Machine Learning models on Kubernetes. This presentation will provide an update on the Kubeflow 1.0 release, and review the Community’s best practices to support Critical User Journeys, which optimize ML workflows.

As a data scientist will often need to build (and save) hundreds of variants of their model, this session will provide a deeper dive into how an integrated storage solution simplifies model-building and increases ML productivity. The presentation will examine how to optimize the daily workflows of data scientists, and eliminate complex and time-consuming manual tasks. The talk will also highlight how efficient Kubeflow operations rely on Kubernetes storage primitives, such as Dynamic Volume Provisioning, Persistent Volumes and StatefulSets. This integrated solution simplifies the configuration, operations and data protection for Kubeflow and generic K8s stateful apps in production-grade, multi-user environments.
