Book Description
With a highly scalable machine learning (ML) platform, organizations can quickly scale the delivery of ML products for faster business value realization, so there is a huge demand for skilled ML solutions architects in different industries. This hands-on ML book takes you through the design patterns, architectural considerations, and the latest technology that you need to know to become a successful ML solutions architect.

You'll start by understanding ML fundamentals and how ML can be applied to real-world business problems. Once you've explored some of the leading ML algorithms for solving different types of problems, the book will help you get to grips with data management and using ML libraries such as TensorFlow and PyTorch. You'll learn how to use open source technology such as Kubernetes/Kubeflow to build a data science environment and ML pipelines and then advance to building an enterprise ML architecture using Amazon Web Services (AWS) services. You'll then cover security and governance considerations, advanced ML engineering techniques, and how to apply bias detection, explainability, and privacy in ML model development. Finally, you'll get acquainted with AWS AI services and their applications in real-world use cases.

By the end of this book, you'll be able to design and build an ML platform to support common use cases and architecture patterns.
