Are you grappling with which machine learning model deployment strategy to choose? Curious about best practices for deploying models while ensuring zero downtime? Wondering how to test a new model’s performance in production without disrupting the existing one? Whether you’re new to ML deployments or looking to refine your approach, this blog has you covered.

In this post, we’ll dive deep into ML deployment strategies, highlighting how to deploy models effectively and avoid common pitfalls. Being an ML Engineer, MLOps Specialist, or Data Scientist, understanding and implementing these deployment techniques is crucial for building robust ML systems. There are no shortcuts — following best practices ensures your models are deployed smoothly and efficiently. Follow along as we explore essential tips and strategies for creating a reliable and effective ML deployment pipeline.

Deployment Strategies 🚀

Technique 1: Canary Deployment 🌟

A Top-Tier Strategy for ML Model deployment

A Canary Deployment involves releasing a new version of an ML model to a small subset of users (say, 30–40%) while the old model continues serving the majority of users. This allows the new model’s performance to be evaluated under real production conditions without fully replacing the old version.
