In ModelOps, each step of the model lifecycle is associated with a job. The following types of jobs are executed to complete the model lifecycle:
- Training: When a model's training starts, a training job is created.
- Evaluation: To evaluate a trained model, an evaluation job is executed.
- Approval: The approval process of a model is associated with an approval job.
- Deployment: When a model is deployed in production, a deployment job is executed.
- Retirement: A model deployment is retired by executing a retirement job.
The following job types are not part of the model lifecycle but provide supporting information for models and deployments, respectively:
- Compute Statistics: Executes to validate and compute statistics for BYOM model after import. These statistics will be used for evaluation in next step..
- Batch Prediction: A scoring job for deployed model version that can be scheduled or manually executed. It is triggered by either cron (scheduled expression) or selecting Run Nowon the tab.
