Improving the Data Scientists Workflow
Machine Learning Pipelines
reusable end-to-end machine learning workflows via pipelines
separate Python SDK
pipeline steps are executed directly in Kubernetes
within its own pod
A first pipeline step
executes a given command within a container
input and output can be passed around
from kfp.dsl import ContainerOp
step1 = ContainerOp(name='step1',
image='alpine:latest',
command=['sh', '-c'],
arguments=['echo "Running step"'])
Execution order
Execution order can be made dependent
Arange components using step2.after(step1)
step1 = ContainerOp(name='step1',
image='alpine:latest',
command=['sh', '-c'],
arguments=['echo "Running step"'])
step2 = ContainerOp(name='step2',
image='alpine:latest',
command=['sh', '-c'],
arguments=['echo "Running step"'])
step2.after(step1)
Creating a pipeline
Pipelines are created using the @pipeline
decorator and compiled afterwards via compile()
from kfp.compiler import Compiler
from kfp.dsl import ContainerOp, pipeline
@pipeline(name='My pipeline', description='')
def pipeline():
step1 = ContainerOp(name='step1',
image='alpine:latest',
command=['sh', '-c'],
arguments=['echo "Running step"'])
step2 = ContainerOp(name='step2',
image='alpine:latest',
command=['sh', '-c'],
arguments=['echo "Running step"'])
step2.after(step1)
if __name__ == '__main__':
Compiler().compile(pipeline)
When to use ContainerOp?
Useful for deployment tasks
Running of complex training scenarios
(make use of training scripts)
Getting the pipeline to run
Pipelines are compiled via dsl-compile
> sudo pip install \
https://storage.googleapis.com/ml-pipeline/release/latest/kfp.tar.gz
> dsl-compile --py pipeline.py --output pipeline.tar.gz
Running pipelines from Notebooks
- Create and run pipelines by importing the kfp package
- Can be useful to save notebook resources
- Enables developers to combine prototyping with creating an automated training workflow
from kfp.compiler import Compiler
# Setup the pipeline
pipeline_func = training_pipelinep
pipeline_filename = pipeline_func.__name__ + '.pipeline.yaml'
# Compile it
Compiler().compile(pipeline_func, pipeline_filename)
Running pipelines from Notebooks
import kfp
client = kfp.Client()
try:
experiment = client.create_experiment("Prototyping")
except Exception:
experiment = client.get_experiment(experiment_name="Prototyping")
arguments = {'pretrained': 'False'}
run_name = pipeline_func.__name__ + ' test_run'
run_result = client.run_pipeline(
experiment.id,
run_name,
pipeline_filename,
arguments)
Continuous Integration
Kubeflow provides a REST API
That’s it.
