Our recommendation
DeepLearning.AI's MLOps specialisation, on taking machine-learning models into production — data pipelines, deployment, monitoring and maintaining models in the real world. It is advanced, aimed at people who already build ML models and want the engineering side. One of the better structured MLOps programmes.

Good for: ML practitioners who want to learn to deploy and maintain models in production.

Less suitable if: You are new to machine learning, or you only want to build models, not deploy them.

Is this course right for you?

A good fit if you…

You already build ML models
You want the production and engineering side
You work towards ML engineering

Consider something else if you…

You are new to machine learning
You only want to build models
You want a short course

Requirements: Machine-learning and Python experience; advanced.

Realistic time: About 160 hours across the specialisation; a few months part-time.

About this course

The MLOps Specialization bridges the gap between training models and running them in production. Across four courses, you design ML pipelines, manage data and model versioning, deploy with TFX, and monitor for data and concept drift.

What you'll learn

Design end-to-end ML pipelines with data validation and feature engineering
Version datasets and models using ML metadata stores
Deploy models with TensorFlow Serving and build prediction APIs
Monitor production models for data and concept drift
Apply CI/CD practices to ML workflows with automated retraining
