MLOps
MLOps (Machine Learning Operations) is an engineering practice that integrates the development and production operations of machine learning systems, combining methodologies from machine learning, data engineering, and DevOps. Its core scope covers data management, model training, version control, automated deployment, continuous integration and delivery, and model monitoring and iterative updates in production environments, aiming to improve the reliability, reproducibility, and scalability of machine learning projects from experimentation to production.
Core Facts
Google's MLOps maturity model defines the degree of automation across three levels: Level 0 is fully manual, Level 1 achieves ML pipeline automation and continuous training, and Level 2 achieves full CI/CD + CT automation.
Google's MLOps maturity model divides ML systems into levels 0 through 2, with Level 2 achieving a complete CI/CD/CT closed loop.
LLMOps is an emerging engineering field evolved from MLOps, designed to address LLM-specific issues such as prompt version management, multi-model routing, and conversation history tracking.
Timeline (last 90 days)
A graphical operations platform encapsulates operations such as model loading, token statistics and VRAM monitoring into a visual interface, replacing part of the MLOps manpower and lowering the operations threshold for local deployment by small and medium-sized teams.
Bridging the gap between prototypes and production systems requires establishing an MLOps system covering data version management, model versioning and rollback, automated evaluation pipelines, online metric monitoring and alerting, and trigger mechanisms for model retraining.
The difference between LLMOps and traditional MLOps is that LLM applications often do not train models, but instead orchestrate around third-party models, and the management focus shifts from 'model weights' to 'prompts, retrieved content, and call chains'.
Without MLOps, models often quickly become ineffective after deployment due to changes in data distribution, and problems are difficult to trace.
A mature MLOps system typically includes a feature store, automated evaluation gates, and shadow traffic validation, and the absence of any one of these will cause model iteration speed to be dragged down by infrastructure.
The typical MLOps lifecycle is usually divided into stages such as data preparation, experimentation, training, deployment, monitoring, and retraining.
ChurnWatch covers both ends of the MLOps lifecycle, training and monitoring, omitting heavy components such as CI/CD, feature stores, and model registries.
MLOps focuses on the observability of model training, version management, and inference services, with the core object being stateless or lightly stateful inference endpoints; AgentOps focuses on agent processes that are stateful, long-running, and actively change the external environment.
AgentOps is not a replacement for MLOps, but a new layer of capability stacked on top of it: model serving is still managed by MLOps, while the Harness lifecycle, sandbox policy, and trajectory tracing are taken up by AgentOps.
The platform includes MLOps and model validation (feature pipelines, forward-rolling and purged cross-validation, backtesting, and simulated trading), as well as domain-specific small models and an MCP server that lets AI agents query the data.
