Monitoring and Retraining Machine Learning Models

Nicolas Mauti is an MLOps Engineer from Lyon (France), Working at Malt. BigQuery Feature Store // MLOps Podcast #255 with Nicolas Mauti, Lead MLOps at Malt. // Abstract Need a feature store for your AI/ML applications but overwhelmed by the multitude of options? Think again. In this talk, Nicolas shares how they solved this issue at Malt by leveraging the tools they already had in place. From ingestion to training, Nicolas provides insights on how to transform BigQuery into an effective feature management system. We cover how Nicolas' team designed their feature tables and addressed challenges such as monitoring, alerting, data quality, point-in-time lookups, and backfilling. If you’re looking for a simpler way to manage your features without the overhead of additional software, this talk is for you. Discover how BigQuery can handle it all! // Bio Nicolas Mauti is the go-to guy for all things related to MLOps at Malt. With a knack for turning complex problems into streamlined solutions and over a decade of experience in code, data, and ops, he is a driving force in developing and deploying machine learning models that actually work in production. When he's not busy optimizing AI workflows, you can find him sharing his knowledge at the university. Whether it's cracking a tough data challenge or cracking a joke, Nicolas knows how to keep things interesting. // MLOps Jobs board https://mlops.pallet.xyz/jobs // MLOps Swag/Merch https://mlops-community.myshopify.com/ // Related Links Nicolas' Medium - https://medium.com/@nmauti Data Engineering for AI/ML Conference: https://home.mlops.community/home/events/dataengforai --------------- ✌️Connect With Us ✌️ ------------- Join our slack community: https://go.mlops.community/slack Follow us on Twitter: @mlopscommunity Sign up for the next meetup: https://go.mlops.community/register Catch all episodes, blogs, newsletters, and more: https://mlops.community/ Connect with Demetrios on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/dpbrinkm/ Connect with Nicolas on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/nicolasmauti/?locale=en_US Timestamps: [00:00] Nicolas' preferred beverage [00:35] Takeaways [02:25] Please like, share, leave a review, and subscribe to our MLOps channels!
