Different Architecture Support by Azure ML

1. Azure Machine Learning service (AML):


• Azure Machine Learning service is a comprehensive platform that provides end-
to-end machine learning lifecycle management.
• It supports various deployment options, including Azure Container Instances,
Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS), and Azure Functions.
• With AML, you can package your model as a Docker container along with its
dependencies and deploy it as a scalable, production-ready service.
• It offers features like model versioning, automated scaling, and monitoring,
making it suitable for enterprise-grade ML deployments.
2. Azure Functions:
• Azure Functions is a serverless compute service that allows you to run your
code in a stateless, event-driven environment.
• You can deploy your ML model as an Azure Function, which can be triggered by
events or HTTP requests.
• Azure Functions automatically scales based on the incoming workload, making
it suitable for lightweight models or scenarios with unpredictable traffic
patterns.
• It is a cost-effective option as you only pay for the actual execution time
of your functions.
3. Azure Container Instances (ACI):
• Azure Container Instances enables you to run containers in Azure without
managing the underlying infrastructure.
• You can create a container image that includes your ML model and its
dependencies, and then deploy it as a container instance.
• ACI is suitable for quick and easy deployment of individual containers,
especially for scenarios with short-lived workloads or sporadic burst traffic.
• It provides flexibility in terms of resource allocation and is a good choice
for rapid prototyping or development environments.
4. Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS):
• Azure Kubernetes Service is a managed container orchestration service that
simplifies the deployment, management, and scaling of containerized applications.
• You can package your ML model as a Docker container and deploy it on AKS,
which offers scalability, high availability, and automated management capabilities.
• AKS provides features like load balancing, automatic scaling, and rolling
updates, making it suitable for production-grade ML deployments.
• It supports deploying multiple replicas of your model for better performance
and fault tolerance.
5. Azure Batch AI:
• Azure Batch AI is a platform that provides job scheduling and management for
AI and ML workloads.
• You can use Azure Batch AI to distribute the inference or training tasks of
your ML model across a cluster of virtual machines.
• It is designed for computationally intensive workloads that require parallel
processing and can scale up to large clusters.
• Azure Batch AI offers flexibility in terms of virtual machine configuration
and job scheduling options, making it suitable for complex ML workloads.
6. Azure IoT Edge:
• Azure IoT Edge allows you to deploy and run ML models on edge devices or IoT
devices.
• You can package your ML model as a Docker container and deploy it to edge
devices using Azure IoT Edge.
• Azure IoT Edge provides offline capabilities, local inferencing, and the
ability to run models on devices with limited computing resources.
• It supports modular deployment, enabling you to deploy pre-processing and
post-processing modules along with your ML model.

Different Deployment Scenario


Scenario 1: We have pre trained model

1. Azure Functions:
• Azure Functions is a serverless compute service that allows you to run your
code in a stateless, event-driven environment.
• You can create a Python function that loads the pickle file, performs
predictions, and returns the results.
• Azure Functions automatically scales based on the incoming workload, ensuring
your function can handle varying traffic patterns.
• It is well-suited for lightweight models and scenarios where you need on-
demand scaling and event-driven execution.
• Azure Functions can be triggered by events (such as HTTP requests, timers, or
message queues) or can be integrated with other Azure services.
2. Azure Container Instances (ACI):
• Azure Container Instances provides a way to run containers in Azure without
managing the underlying infrastructure.
• You can create a Docker container that includes your Python code,
dependencies, and the pickle file with the pre-trained model.
• ACI allows you to deploy the container quickly and easily, providing a
scalable environment to perform predictions.
• It is suitable when you need a more persistent and isolated environment
compared to Azure Functions.
• ACI is a good choice when you have a larger model or specific dependencies
that require containerization.
Both Azure Functions and ACI offer advantages depending on your specific
requirements. If your model and associated code are relatively small and you expect
low to moderate traffic, Azure Functions might be a suitable choice due to its
serverless nature and event-driven capabilities. On the other hand, if you have a
larger model or need more control over the environment, ACI can provide a scalable
container-based solution.

Scenario 2: We have Train Test And Deploy Model.

1. Scale and parallel processing: Azure Batch AI is designed to handle large-


scale and parallel AI workloads. If your prediction workload involves processing a
large number of inputs simultaneously or requires significant computational
resources, Azure Batch AI can distribute the workload across a cluster of virtual
machines for faster processing.
2. Model packaging and dependencies: With Azure Batch AI, you can package your
model, including the pickle file and associated dependencies, as a Docker
container. This container can be deployed to the Azure Batch AI cluster for
execution. If your model has complex dependencies or requires custom software
configurations, Azure Batch AI allows you to specify those in the container
environment.
3. Job management and scheduling: Azure Batch AI provides job scheduling and
management capabilities, allowing you to define and schedule inference jobs. It can
handle the orchestration of running multiple jobs on the cluster, including
managing resource allocation, monitoring, and job dependencies.
4. Training and inference flexibility: While Azure Batch AI is well-suited for
training and distributed inference tasks, it may introduce additional complexity if
your goal is to simply perform predictions using a pre-trained model. The overhead
of setting up a cluster and managing jobs might be more than what is necessary for
a prediction-only workload.
