Abstract |
While many companies aim to use Machine Learning (ML) models, transitioning to deployment and practical application of such models can be very time-consuming and technically challenging. To address this, MLOps (ML Operations) offers processes, tools, practices, and patterns to bring ML models into operation. A large number of tools and platforms have been created to support developers in creating practical solutions. However, specific needs vary strongly in a situation-dependent manner, and a good overview of their characteristics is missing, making the architect’s task very challenging. We conducted a systematic literature review (SLR) of MLOps platforms, describing their qualities, features, tactics, and patterns. In this paper, we want to map the design space of MLOps platforms. We are guided by the Attribute-Driven Design (ADD) methodology. In this way, we want to provide software architects with a tool to support their work in the platform area. |
