People ask me how I managed to deploy so many models while onboarding a new team within a year. My answer is: JFrog ML.

Challenges

As OpenWeb's data science team expanded, there was a pressing need to demonstrate immediate value to stakeholders. Their challenges included:

  • The team's rapid growth meant they required engineering solutions that enabled them to swiftly move forward without the burdens of server maintenance and infrastructure configurations.
  • Previous solutions tested presented intricate change management and basic configurations that hindered smooth execution.
  • The team had a crucial need for real-time inference responses, necessitating the processing through multiple models in under 50 ms.
  • Instantaneous model deployment was a non-negotiable requirement.

Implementation

Solutions

Seamless Integration: Integration with existing models using Qwak was streamlined and intuitive. By leveraging Qwak’s Python SDK, even data scientists without extensive engineering backgrounds found it effortless to run integrations with just a line of code.

Efficient Inference: When compared to other platforms, such as Sagemaker, Qwak's NLP-based inferences were more user-friendly and efficient. The platform enabled OpenWeb to achieve real-time results while maintaining minimal latency.

Robust Monitoring Capabilities: Qwak's out-of-the-box infrastructure monitoring, coupled with alerting and log features, ensured that OpenWeb's team was promptly notified of any issues. This allowed for rapid troubleshooting and problem resolution.

Comprehensive Analytics: OpenWeb could easily query model data and monitor prediction data, ensuring transparency and performance monitoring.

Exceptional Support from Qwak: Throughout the onboarding phase and transition to production, Qwak's support team provided prompt and invaluable assistance, ensuring a smooth operational transition for OpenWeb.
