Frequently asked questions
What is MLOps and why does it matter?
MLOps is the operations layer that keeps a machine learning or AI model working after launch: automated deployment, monitoring for drift and quality, retraining triggers, and rollback. It matters because a model that's accurate on launch day quietly degrades as the data changes, and MLOps is what catches that before it reaches a customer or a decision.
What is the difference between data observability and model observability?
Data observability watches the pipelines feeding the model: freshness, volume, schema, and distribution. Model observability watches what the model does: accuracy, hallucination rate, drift, latency, cost, and whether each answer can be traced. You need both, because a clean pipeline can still feed a model that degrades, and a good model on stale data produces confident nonsense.
Do you cover LLMs and agents, or only traditional ML models?
Both. Classic ML models need drift and accuracy monitoring; LLMs and agents also need hallucination rates, output-quality benchmarks, token cost, and, for agents, which actions they take and how often a human overrides them. We instrument whichever you run in production.
How do you catch a model that's drifting?
We baseline the model's inputs and outputs, then monitor both continuously against that baseline. When the input distribution shifts or output quality slides past a threshold, the named owner gets an alert, and where it makes sense a retraining pipeline triggers. The point is to notice before a customer or a decision does.
Can you operate our MLOps, or only set it up?
Either. We build the deployment, monitoring, and retraining plumbing, and we can run it on a retainer with a named engineer, handling alerts, retraining, and model updates as an ongoing service. Many clients start with the build and move to managed operations once it's in place.
Should we hire an MLOps consultant or build the capability in house?
Both, in that order. An MLOps consultant is worth it to stand up the deployment, monitoring and rollback plumbing, because doing it the first time is where the expensive mistakes live and it is a solved problem for anyone who has done it before. Operating it afterwards should be your team, which means the handover matters more than the build: a runbook, the retraining triggers documented, and a named owner who can act on an alert at 2am without calling us.
How long to stand up MLOps on an existing model?
For a single model already in production, a scoped MLOps setup with deployment, monitoring, and rollback typically ships in 6 to 10 weeks. A broader program across several models takes longer, but we start with the model whose failure would hurt most.
