MLOps.communityMLOps community meetup #11 // Machine Learning at Scale in Mercado Libre with Carlos de la TorreMLOps community meetup #11 Machine Learning at scale in Mercado Libre with Carlos de la Torre
Mercado Libre hosts the largest online commerce and payments ecosystem in Latin America. The IT department built Fury: a PaaS framework for the development and deployment of multi-cloud, multi-technology, microservices. This platform leveraged the growth of the IT area, which now counts ~4000 people.
As such, it lacked support for machine-learning based solutions: an experimentation environment for data-scientists, infrastructure and data access support for ETL and model’s training tasks, etc. Therefore, for over a year now, they have been developing Fury D...2020-05-1659 min
MLOps.communityMLOps.community #5 - High Stakes ML: Latent Conditions and Active Failures with Flavio ClesioIn our 5th meetup, we spoke with the Brasilian ML Engineer Flavio Clesio.
Machine Learning Systems play a huge role in several businesses from the Banking industry to recommender systems in entertainment applications until health domains. The era of "A Data Scientist with a Script in a single machine" is officially over in high stakes ML.
We're entering an era of Machine Learning Operations (MLOps) where those critical applications that impact society and businesses need to be aware of aspects like active failures and latent conditions. This talk will discuss risk assessment in ML Systems...2020-04-1555 min
