Description:

Imagine if you could reduce the time and effort you spend on data preparation and model deployment by up to 80%. Imagine if you could focus more on the creative and impactful aspects of data science and machine learning. Imagine if you could build and deploy ML models in just 30 minutes!

Sounds too good to be true? Well, it’s not.

In this talk, I will show you how to use DVC, PyCaret, and FastAPI, three open-source tools that can help you streamline your data science and MLOps workflow. You will learn how to:

• Use DVC to track your data and models in a Git-like manner
• Use PyCaret to set up experiments and compare different ML models
• Use FastAPI to create a RestfulAPI server to host your ML model
• Deploy your ML model & use it for individual as well as bulk inferencing

By the end of this talk, you will have a working web API that can predict heart failure risk based on some input features. You will also have the skills and knowledge to use DVC, PyCaret, and FastAPI for your own data science and MLOps projects. Whether you are new to these tools or want to improve your existing skills, this talk will give you a hands-on introduction to DVC, PyCaret, and FastAPI, three of the most popular tools for data science and MLOps.
