Therefore, make sure\nto get sufficient quota to provision the required resources your pipelines\nneed to run in production.\n\n- **Serving, training, and validation pipelines**. These pipelines require\n TPUs, GPUs, or CPUs. Depending on your use case, you might train and serve\n on different hardware, or use the same hardware. For example, training might\n happen on CPUs but serving might use TPUs, or vice versa. In general, it's\n common to train on bigger hardware and then serve on smaller hardware.\n\n \u003cbr /\u003e\n\n When picking hardware, consider the following:\n - Can you train on less expensive hardware?\n - Would switching to different hardware boost performance?\n - What size is the model and which hardware will optimize its performance?\n - What hardware is ideal based on your model's architecture?\n\n | **Note:** When switching models between hardware, consider the time and effort to migrate the model. Switching hardware might make the model cheaper to run, but the engineering effort to do so might outweigh the savings---or engineering effort might be better prioritized on other work.\n- **Data pipelines**. Data pipelines require quota for RAM and CPU\n\n You'll need to estimate how\n much quota your pipeline needs to generate training and test datasets.\n\nYou might not allocate quota for each pipeline. Instead, you might\nallocate quota that pipelines share. In such cases, verify\nyou have enough quota to run all your pipelines, and set up monitoring and\naltering to prevent a single, errant pipeline from consuming all the quota.\n\nEstimating quota\n\nTo estimate the quota you'll need for the data and training pipelines, find\nsimilar projects to base your estimates on. To estimate serving quota, try to\npredict the service's queries per second. These methods provide a baseline. As\nyou begin prototyping a solution during the experimentation phase, you'll begin\nto get a more precise quota estimate.\n\nWhen estimating quota, remember to factor in quota not only for your production\npipelines, but also for ongoing experiments.\n\nCheck Your Understanding \nWhen choosing hardware to serve predictions, you should always choose more powerful hardware than was used to train the model. \nFalse \nCorrect. Typically, training requires bigger hardware than serving. \nTrue \n\nLogging, monitoring, and alerting\n\nLogging and monitoring a production model's behavior is critical. Robust\nmonitoring infrastructure confirms your models are serving reliable,\nhigh-quality predictions.\n\nGood logging and monitoring practices help proactively identify issues in ML\npipelines and mitigate potential business impact. When issues do occur, alerts\nnotify members of your team, and comprehensive logs facilitate diagnosing the\nproblem's root cause.\n\nYou should implement logging and monitoring to detect the following issues\nwith ML pipelines:\n\n| Pipeline | Monitor |\n|------------|----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|\n| Serving | - Skews or drifts in the serving data compared to the training data - Skews or drifts in predictions - Data type issues, like missing or corrupted values - Quota usage - Model quality metrics Calculating a production model's quality is different than calculating a model's quality during training. In production, you won't necessarily have access to the ground truth to compare predictions against. Instead, you'll need to write custom monitoring instrumentation to capture metrics that act as a proxy for model quality. For example, in a mail app, you won't know which mail is spam in real time. Instead, you can monitor the percentage of mail users move to spam. If the number jumps from 0.5% to 3%, that signals a potential issue with the model. | Note that comparing the changes in | the proxy metrics is more insightful than their raw numbers. |\n| Data | - Skews and drifts in feature values - Skews and drifts in label values - Data type issues, like missing or corrupted values - Quota usage rate - Quota limit about to be reached |\n| Training | - Training time - Training failures - Quota usage |\n| Validation | - Skew or drift in the test datasets |\n\nYou'll also want logging, monitoring, alerting for the following:\n\n- **Latency**. How long does it take to deliver a prediction?\n- **Outages**. Has the model stopped delivering predictions?\n\nCheck Your Understanding \nWhich of the following is the main reason for logging and monitoring your ML pipelines? \nProactively detect issues before they impact users \nTrack quota and resource usage \nIdentify potential security problems \nAll of the above \nCorrect. Logging and monitoring your ML pipelines helps prevent and diagnose problems before they become serious.\n\nDeploying a model\n\nFor model deployment, you'll want to document the following:\n\n- Approvals required to begin deployment and increase the roll out.\n- How to put a model into production.\n- Where the model gets deployed, for example, if there are staging or canary environments.\n- What to do if a deployment fails.\n- How to rollback a model already in production.\n\nAfter automating model training, you'll want to automate\nvalidation and deployment. Automating deployments distributes\nresponsibility and reduces the likelihood of a deployment being bottlenecked by\na single person. It also reduces potential mistakes, increases efficiency and\nreliability, and enables on-call rotations and SRE support.\n\nTypically you deploy new models to a subset of users to check that the model is\nbehaving as expected. If it is, continue with the deployment. If it's not,\nyou rollback the deployment and begin diagnosing and debugging the issues."]]
