On Juggling, Dr. Seuss and Feature Stores for Real-time AI/ML // Nava Levy // MLOps Meetup #101

MLOps Community Meetup #101! Last Wednesday we talked to Nava Levy, Developer Advocate for Data Science and MLOps of Redis. //Abstract Real-time ML-based applications are on the rise but deploying them at scale for large datasets with low latency and high throughput is challenging. This talk discusses the important role of feature stores for machine learning in deploying these applications. By exploring a number of use cases in production, we see how the choice of online data store and the feature store data architecture play important roles in determining its performance and cost. Throughout the presentation, Nava illustrates key points by connecting them to juggling and Dr. Seuss! Stay tuned :) // Bio Nava is a Developer Advocate for Data Science and MLOps at Redis. She started her career in tech with an R&D Unit in the IDF and later had the good fortune to work with and champion Cloud, Big Data, and DL/ML/AI technologies just as the wave of each of these was starting. Nava is also a mentor at the MassChallenge accelerator and the founder of LerGO—a cloud-based EdTech venture. In her free time, she enjoys cycling, 4-ball juggling, and reading fantasy and sci-fi books. // Jobs board https://mlops.pallet.xyz/jobs // Related links KDnuggets article: https://www.kdnuggets.com/2022/03/feature-stores-realtime-ai-machine-learning.html Feast with Redis Quickstart tutorial: https://redis.com/blog/feast-with-redis-tutorial-for-machine-learning/ Linkedin: https://il.linkedin.com/in/nava1 LerGO: www.lergo.org.il (focused on Hebrew, Arabic) LinkedIn's Feathr on Azure with Redis Slack: feathrAI.slack.com Slides: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1CXNBhgvGi16KPEuk2Nl5NsyQpgcXl99e/view?usp=sharing Linkedin's Feathr on Azure with Redis: https://github.com/linkedin/feathr/blob/main/docs/quickstart.md Feast with Redis quickstart: https://redis.com/blog/feast-with-redis-tutorial-for-machine-learning/ Feast on Azure with Redis: https://github.com/Azure/feast-azure Buil
