Session
Proper monitoring of machine learning models in production is essential to avoid performance issues. Setting up monitoring can be easy for a single model, but it often becomes challenging at scale or when you face alert fatigue based on many metrics and dashboards.
In this talk, I will introduce the concept of test-based ML monitoring. I will explore how to prioritize metrics based on risks and model use cases, integrate checks in the prediction pipeline and standardize them across similar models and model lifecycle. I will also take an in-depth look at batch model monitoring architecture and the use of open-source tools for setup and analysis.
