The Machine Learning Solutions Architect Handbook: Practical strategies and best practices on the ML lifecycle, system design, MLOps, and generative AI, 2nd Edition

English | 2024 | ISBN: 978-1805122500 | 602 Pages | PDF, EPUB | 45 MB

Design, build, and secure scalable machine learning (ML) systems to solve real-world business problems with Python and AWS

Key Features

• Solve large-scale ML challenges in the cloud with several open-source and AWS tools and frameworks
• Apply risk management techniques in the ML life cycle and learn architecture patterns for solutions
• Understand the challenges and risks of implementing generative AI

David Ping, Head of GenAI and ML Solution Architecture for global industries at AWS, provides expert insights and practical examples to help you become a proficient ML solutions architect, linking technical architecture to business-related skills.

You’ll learn about ML algorithms, cloud infrastructure, system design, MLOps , and how to apply ML to solve real-world business problems. David explains the generative AI project lifecycle and examines Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG), an effective architecture pattern for generative AI applications. You’ll also learn about open-source technologies, such as Kubernetes/Kubeflow, for building a data science environment and ML pipelines before building an enterprise ML architecture using AWS. As well as ML risk management and the different stages of AI/ML adoption, the biggest new addition to the handbook is the deep exploration of generative AI.

By the end of this book , you’ll have gained a comprehensive understanding of AI/ML across all key aspects, including business use cases, data science, real-world solution architecture, risk management, and governance. You’ll possess the skills to design and construct ML solutions that effectively cater to common use cases and follow established ML architecture patterns, enabling you to excel as a true professional in the field.
