Course Description

Most machine learning models never make it to production. Data scientists can build high-performance models in Jupyter notebooks, yet struggle to deploy, monitor, and maintain them in live environments. This course bridges that critical gap — transforming ML experimentation into reliable, scalable, and maintainable production systems.
Over five intensive days, participants will build and deploy a complete production ML system from scratch. The curriculum covers model serving with FastAPI, containerization with Docker, CI/CD automation, model versioning with MLflow, performance monitoring, data drift detection, and automated retraining pipelines. Through hands-on projects, learners will master the full MLOps lifecycle — from development to deployment to ongoing maintenance.
Prerequisite note: This course is designed for professionals who already know how to build ML models using Python and Scikit-learn. Participants should be comfortable with Python programming, REST APIs, Git, and the command line. Basic Docker familiarity is helpful but not required. Expect to spend approximately 30-35 hours over the course duration.

Course Outline

This course is structured into 10 core modules, each carefully designed to build progressively on the previous one.

Learning Outcomes

Technical Skills

  • Design and implement RESTful APIs for serving ML models using FastAPI, including request validation and batch prediction endpoints.
  • Containerize ML applications with Docker, including optimized Dockerfiles, multi-stage builds, and volume management.
  • Deploy containerized ML applications to cloud platforms including AWS, GCP, Azure, and Render with appropriate scaling strategies.
  • Implement comprehensive CI/CD pipelines using GitHub Actions, including automated testing, model validation, and zero-downtime deployments.
  • Track experiments, log artifacts, and manage model versions using MLflow, including integration with model registries.
  • Build monitoring dashboards with Prometheus and Grafana to track model performance, detect data drift, and configure alerts.
  • Implement automated retraining pipelines triggered by performance degradation, data drift, or scheduled intervals.
  • Optimize inference latency and throughput through model optimization, caching strategies, and appropriate infrastructure choices.
  • Apply MLOps best practices including version control, testing, documentation, and rollback strategies.
  • Design and execute load testing strategies to validate system reliability and performance under production traffic patterns.

Career Benefits

  • Bridge the critical gap between data science experimentation and production-grade ML engineering.
  • Build a portfolio of production-ready ML systems that demonstrate real-world engineering capabilities.
  • Develop highly sought-after MLOps skills that are currently in critical shortage across industries.
  • Lead ML deployment and MLOps initiatives within your organization with confidence and authority.
