End-to-End Machine Learning Pipeline

Published:

Project Overview

Designed and implemented a complete machine learning pipeline that processes data, trains models, and serves predictions in real-time. The system handles data ingestion, preprocessing, model training, validation, and deployment with full monitoring and observability.

Key Features

  • Real-time Data Processing: Apache Kafka for streaming data ingestion
  • Model Training: Automated training pipeline with hyperparameter optimization
  • Model Serving: RESTful API with automatic scaling
  • Monitoring: Comprehensive logging and metrics collection
  • A/B Testing: Framework for comparing model versions

Technical Stack

  • Backend: Python, FastAPI, Celery
  • Data Processing: Apache Spark, Pandas
  • ML Framework: TensorFlow, Scikit-learn
  • Infrastructure: Docker, Kubernetes, AWS
  • Monitoring: Prometheus, Grafana, ELK Stack

Results

  • Reduced prediction latency by 60%
  • Improved model accuracy by 15%
  • Achieved 99.9% uptime
  • Processed 1M+ predictions per day

Lessons Learned

This project taught me the importance of:

  • Designing for scale from the beginning
  • Implementing comprehensive testing strategies
  • Building observability into every component
  • Planning for failure and recovery scenarios
