Overview
MLflow is an open-source platform for managing the ML lifecycle including experiment tracking, model versioning, deployment, and a registry for production models.
Key Features
- Experiment tracking with metrics, params, and artifacts
- Model Registry for versioning and stage transitions
- MLflow Projects for reproducible ML code
- Serving models via REST API with mlflow models serve
- Auto-logging for sklearn, TensorFlow, PyTorch, XGBoost
- Databricks-hosted MLflow for enterprise use
Real-World Workflows
Track model training experiments
- 1Start an MLflow run with mlflow.start_run()
- 2Log parameters (learning rate, epochs) with mlflow.log_param()
- 3Log metrics per epoch with mlflow.log_metric()
- 4Compare runs in the MLflow UI at localhost:5000
Register and promote a model to production
- 1Log the trained model with mlflow.sklearn.log_model()
- 2Register to Model Registry with a version tag
- 3Transition version from Staging to Production via UI or API
- 4Load the production model in serving with mlflow.pyfunc.load_model()
Getting Started
pip install mlflow
import mlflow
mlflow.set_experiment('my-experiment')
with mlflow.start_run():
mlflow.log_param('lr', 0.01)
mlflow.log_metric('accuracy', 0.95)
mlflow.sklearn.log_model(model, 'model')
