Deploying Machine Learning Models with Flask, Docker, Jenkins and Kubernetes
This article introduces an automated approach to deploying machine learning models using Flask, Docker, Jenkins and Kubernetes. The basic principle: Flask provides RESTful API to receive client prediction requests; Docker packages the service into a docker image for easy deployment and migration; Jenkins triggers automatic builds when code or models are updated; Kubernetes manages containers for scalability and reliability. This article is based on Deploy a machine learning model in 10 minutes with Flask, Docker, and Jenkins with improvements and extensions, such as a simple shell script to trigger Jenkins and Kubernetes deployment instructions. All code is available at DeployMachineLearningModel.
