The Fifth Elephant 2019

Every decision at Flipkart is data driven which implies every team at Flipkart is adopting Machine Learning based solutions. Machine Learning Platform enables data scientists and engineers to build, productionize and monitor machine learning models reliably at scale.
In this talk, we will walk you through the challenges faced in building ML Platform and evolution of the platform. We will also cover why it was important for us to make ML Platform a part of Flipkart’s Data Platform and how it helped us in building capabilities like interactive experimentation, batch prediction, model reproducibility and model health monitoring.

Outline

• Why did we build Machine Learning Platform at Flipkart?
• Challenges faced in productionizing ML models and how did we solve them.
• MLPlatform Evolution.
• How we leveraged Flipkart’s Data Platform to enable interactive experimentation, batch prediction, model reproducibility and model health monitoring?
• Future Work
