Getting started with Kubeflow





Who is this presentation for?
- Data scientists and AI infrastructure engineers
Level
BeginnerDescription
Kubeflow consists of dozens of components used to train and serve machine learning models, but the first task is to understand the Kubeflow architecture and how it fits into the larger Kubernetes ecosystem. Skyler Thomas details the performance, availability, and security impacts of various Kubeflow deployment options and the decisions you make in how you use Kubeflow.
Once you understand the basics, it’s time for you to go hands-on and actually deploy a subset of the Kubeflow components into a running Kubernetes environment using Jupyter Hub and Jupyter notebooks to import your training data and set up prerequisites for creating training environments using TensorFlow (and PyTorch, time permitting). You’ll begin to submit training jobs and generate and serve models via TensorFlow Serving (and Seldon Core, time permitting).
Prerequisite knowledge
- A working knowledge of GitHub (The ability to clone a GitHub repo is required.)
- General knowledge of Kubernetes and various machine learning frameworks like TensorFlow and PyTorch (useful but not required)
Materials or downloads needed in advance
- A Wi-Fi enabled laptop with connectivity to GitHub and a >v1.11 Kubernetes environment (This environment can be a Minikube installation, but a Kubernetes cluster with several nodes available is recommended.)
What you'll learn
- Understand the architecture of Kubeflow
- Learn to install Kubeflow into Kubernetes, use Jupyter Notebooks, start a TensorFlow training job, and serve your models to handle requests

Please avoid downloading the slides at the same time during the session. The break time would be best. Thank you.
