Build resilient applied machine learning teams that deliver better data products through adapting the guiding principles of the Agile Manifesto.

Bringing together talented people to create a great applied machine learning team is no small feat. With developers and data scientists both contributing expertise in their respective fields, communication alone can be a challenge. Agile Machine Learning teaches you how to deliver superior data products through agile processes and to learn, by example, how to organize and manage a fast-paced team challenged with solving novel data problems at scale, in a production environment.

The authors’ approach models the ground-breaking engineering principles described in the Agile Manifesto. The book provides further context, and contrasts the original principles with the requirements of systems that deliver a data product.


Learn:
✓ Effectively run a data engineering team that is metrics-focused, experiment-focused, and data-focused
✓ Make sound implementation and model exploration decisions based on the data and the metrics
✓ Know the importance of data wallowing: analyzing data in real time in a group setting
✓ Recognize the value of always being able to measure your current state objectively
✓ Understand data literacy, a key attribute of a reliable data engineer, from definitions to expectations

Features:
✓ Authors have proven real-world experience with numerous big data projects coordinated across distributed teams for multiple Microsoft markets
✓ Teaches you how to manage projects involving machine learning more effectively in a production environment
✓ Shows you, by example, how to deliver superior data products through agile processes and organize and manage a fast-paced team challenged with solving novel data problems at scale, in a production environment

Who This Book Is For:
Anyone who manages a machine learning team, or is responsible for creating production-ready inference components. Anyone responsible for data project workflow of sampling data; labeling, training, testing, improving, and maintaining models; and system and data metrics will also find this book useful. Readers should be familiar with software engineering and understand the basics of machine learning and working with data.
