# MLOps Intro

1. A [great intro about MLOPs](https://betterprogramming.pub/mlops-and-mlflops-795781d17989), what are the basic building blocks that you need to understand, in comparison to Data Engineering & DevOps - by Andrew Blance.
2. [Awesome MLOPs on github](https://github.com/visenger/awesome-mlops)
3. Analytics Vidhya
   * [A list of MLOps articles base on the "MLOps" label](https://medium.com/analytics-vidhya/tagged/mlops)
   * [A beginner guide](https://www.analyticsvidhya.com/blog/2021/06/mlops-a-beginners-guide-to-machine-learning-operations/)
   * [A comprehensive guide](https://www.analyticsvidhya.com/blog/2021/06/mlops-a-beginners-guide-to-machine-learning-operations/) - there are quite a lot of details in this article that you should know only if you truely know the basics of ML lifecycle, feature engineering, deployment strategies etc.
   * A two part series about MLOPs - Part 1: [connecting agile, data, devops, and  technology.](https://www.analyticsvidhya.com/blog/2022/02/mlops-part-1-revealing-the-approach-behind-mlops/) Part 2: [going deeper into architecture, deployment, training](https://www.analyticsvidhya.com/blog/2022/02/workflow-of-mlops-part-2-model-building/).
   * MLOps vs DevOps 
     * [The tip of the iceberg](https://www.analyticsvidhya.com/blog/2022/09/how-is-mlops-different-from-devops/) i.e., adding model + data to DevOps methodologies.
     * [Another comparison, has some more details](https://www.analyticsvidhya.com/blog/2020/11/mlops-the-why-and-the-what/) - ML challenges, components
   * [MLOps & Kubernetes ](https://www.analyticsvidhya.com/blog/2022/09/mlops-and-use-of-kubernetes/) - a very sparse intro
   * [High level E2E architecture and explanations](https://www.analyticsvidhya.com/blog/2023/02/mlops-end-to-end-mlops-architecture-and-workflow/)
   * [High level E2E concepts](https://www.analyticsvidhya.com/blog/2021/07/deepdive-into-the-emerging-concpet-of-machine-learning-operations-or-mlops/)
4. MLOps without Ops series [Part 1](https://towardsdatascience.com/mlops-without-much-ops-d17f502f76e8), [Part 2](https://towardsdatascience.com/ml-and-mlops-at-a-reasonable-scale-31d2c0782d9c), [Part 3](https://towardsdatascience.com/hagakure-for-mlops-the-four-pillars-of-ml-at-reasonable-scale-5a09bd073da), [Part 4](https://towardsdatascience.com/the-modern-data-pattern-d34d42216c81)
5. [As an engineering discipline](https://towardsdatascience.com/ml-ops-machine-learning-as-an-engineering-discipline-b86ca4874a3f)

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://www.opscompendium.com/mlops/mlops-intro.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
