We need end to end pipelines and also CI\/CD (Continuous Integration\/Continuous Delivery)<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>We introduce other issues such as the need for <a href=\"https:\/\/community.hitachivantara.com\/s\/article\/4-steps-to-machine-learning-model-management\">champion\/ challenger models<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>However, the Cloud simplifies some of the complexity. For example &ndash; <a href=\"https:\/\/docs.microsoft.com\/en-us\/azure\/databricks\/applications\/mlflow\/\">MLFlow (from databricks) is integrated into Azure<\/a> . <a href=\"https:\/\/aws.amazon.com\/sagemaker\/\">Amazon sagemaker<\/a> provides an end-to-end workflow for managing machine learning models into production. Azure devops provides a good framework for Agile &ndash; Cloud &ndash; DevOps and even Edge into one framework.
