MLflow: Open Source Machine Learning Platform

MLflow is an open source platform for managing the end-to-end machine learning lifecycle. It tracks experiments, packages code into reproducible runs, deploys models, and more.

What is Mlflow?

MLflow is an open source platform for managing the machine learning lifecycle. It provides capabilities to:

  • Track experiments to record metrics such as parameters, code versions, metrics, and output files.
  • Package ML code into reproducible runs for model development, testing, and deployment.
  • Deploy models into production on various platforms.
  • Store and query models and experiment data.
  • Visualize and compare model runs and experiments.

Key capabilities include:

  • Model Registry - Register, version and organize models.
  • Model Serving - Host models locally or on platforms like Docker, Kubernetes and SageMaker.
  • Experiment Tracking - Record metrics and metadata from training and validation.
  • Model Packaging - Package model files with dependencies for reproducible runs.
  • Model Lineage - Query relationships and genealogy of models and experiments.
  • Model Deployment - Deploy models into production.
  • Artifact Stores - Store output files like images, models and metrics.
  • Model Drift Detection - Monitor models in production.

By providing these end-to-end capabilities within a simple platform, MLflow allows teams to effectively manage the ML lifecycle, accelerate innovation and increase productivity.
