This course covers two of the most popular open source platforms for MLOps: MLflow and Hugging Face. We’ll go through the foundations on what it takes to get started in these platforms with basic model and dataset operations. You will start with MLflow using projects and models with its powerful tracking system and you will learn how to interact with these registered models from MLflow with full lifecycle examples. Then, you will explore Hugging Face repositories so that you can store datasets, models, and create live interactive demos. Through a series of hands-on exercises, learners will gain practical experience working with these open source platforms. By the end of the course, you will be able to apply MLOps concepts like fine-tuning and deploying containerized models to the Cloud. This course is ideal for anyone looking to break into the field of MLOps or for experienced MLOps professionals who want to improve their programming skills.

Frequently Asked Questions

When will I have access to the lectures and assignments?
Access to lectures and assignments depends on your type of enrollment. If you take a course in audit mode, you will be able to see most course materials for free. To access graded assignments and to earn a Certificate, you will need to purchase the Certificate experience, during or after your audit. If you don't see the audit option:
The course may not offer an audit option. You can try a Free Trial instead, or apply for Financial Aid.
The course may offer 'Full Course, No Certificate' instead. This option lets you see all course materials, submit required assessments, and get a final grade. This also means that you will not be able to purchase a Certificate experience.
What will I get if I purchase the Certificate?
When you purchase a Certificate you get access to all course materials, including graded assignments. Upon completing the course, your electronic Certificate will be added to your Accomplishments page - from there, you can print your Certificate or add it to your LinkedIn profile. If you only want to read and view the course content, you can audit the course for free.
Is financial aid available?
Yes. In select learning programs, you can apply for financial aid or a scholarship if you can’t afford the enrollment fee. If fin aid or scholarship is available for your learning program selection, you’ll find a link to apply on the description page.
Does your course require any paid software for course completion?
No, exercises and labs are built directly into the course using integrated Coursera Labs (VS Code + Jupyter Notebooks). A few exercises guide learners in deploying models to the Cloud. In those cases, instructions are provided to learners for creating and accessing a free Azure account.
