Production ML Model Serving Patterns

This guide covers production-ready patterns for serving ML models with datason, including error handling, monitoring, performance optimization, and security considerations.

🎯 Overview

Production ML serving requires more than basic serialization. This guide demonstrates:

  • Error Handling: Graceful degradation and recovery
  • Performance Monitoring: Metrics, health checks, and observability
  • Security: Input validation and resource limits
  • Scalability: Batch processing and memory management
  • Observability: Logging, tracing, and debugging

🎯 Best Practices Summary

✅ Do's

  • Use structured logging for debugging and monitoring
  • Implement comprehensive health checks with meaningful metrics
  • Validate inputs thoroughly with schema validation
  • Set resource limits to prevent abuse and ensure stability
  • Use async processing for high-throughput scenarios
  • Implement caching for repeated predictions
  • Monitor performance with metrics and alerting
  • Use blue-green or canary deployments for safe updates

❌ Don'ts

  • Don't skip input validation - always validate and sanitize inputs
  • Don't ignore error handling - implement graceful degradation
  • Don't hardcode configurations - use environment variables
  • Don't skip monitoring - observability is critical in production
  • Don't deploy without testing - always test in staging first
  • Don't ignore security - implement rate limiting and access controls

🔧 Configuration Checklist

  • Input validation and sanitization
  • Error handling and graceful degradation
  • Performance monitoring and metrics
  • Health checks and observability
  • Rate limiting and security controls
  • Caching for performance optimization
  • Async processing for scalability
  • Environment-based configuration
  • Deployment strategies (blue-green/canary)
  • Comprehensive logging and debugging
