Simplifying Machine Learning Architectures with an Event Streaming Platform

Kai Waehner

Machine Learning (ML) is separated into model training and model inference. ML frameworks typically use a data lake like HDFS or S3 to process historical data and train analytic models. Model inference and monitoring at production scale in real time is another common challenge using a data lake. But it’s possible to completely avoid such a data store, using an event streaming architecture. This talk compares the modern approach to traditional batch and big data alternatives and explains benefits like the simplified architecture, the ability of reprocessing events in the same order for training different models, and the possibility to build a scalable, mission-critical ML architecture for real time predictions with muss less headaches and problems. The talk explains how Kai Waehner this can be achieved leveraging the open source frameworks Apache Kafka and TensorFlow.
