This course equips you with the essential skills to take generative AI models from development to production. You will learn to implement robust MLOps practices on Azure, including automated CI/CD pipelines, version control, and full lifecycle management for your models. Simultaneously, you will dive into the critical principles of Responsible AI, using Microsoft’s framework to build fair, transparent, and ethical models that you can deploy with confidence.
This module introduces the core principles of MLOps (machine learning operations), such as automation and reproducibility. Learners will explore the complete AI model lifecycle, from initial setup to deployment, and learn to manage these stages effectively using Azure ML and tools like MLflow.
