This course covers two of the most popular open source platforms for MLOps (Machine Learning Operations): MLflow and Hugging Face. We’ll go through the foundations on what it takes to get started in these platforms with basic model and dataset operations. You will start with MLflow using projects and models with its powerful tracking system and you will learn how to interact with these registered models from MLflow with full lifecycle examples. Then, you will explore Hugging Face repositories so that you can store datasets, models, and create live interactive demos.

This week, you will learn the basics of the Hugging Face platform. You will use some of its features like its repositories so that you can store models and datasets. Finally, you will learn how to add and use models and datasets using Hugging Face APIs as well as the web interface.
What's included
14 videos9 readings1 quiz1 ungraded lab
This week, you will learn how to containerize Hugging Face models and use the FastAPI framework to serve the model with an interactive HTTP API endpoint. Once you understand how to put everything together, you’ll use automation for speed and reproducibility. Finally, you’ll use Azure and Docker Hub to store the containers so that they can be used later for deployments.

This week, you will learn how to fine-tune Hugging Face models by using pre-existing models and then modifying (fine-tuning) them with additional data. You’ll also use Azure to deploy the container and learn how to troubleshoot it. Finally, you’ll also see how to deploy a model to Hugging Face spaces.

Frequently asked questions
No, exercises and labs are built directly into the course using integrated Coursera Labs (VS Code + Jupyter Notebooks). A few exercises guide learners in deploying models to the Cloud. In those cases, instructions are provided to learners for creating and accessing a free Azure account.
Access to lectures and assignments depends on your type of enrollment. If you take a course in audit mode, you will be able to see most course materials for free. To access graded assignments and to earn a Certificate, you will need to purchase the Certificate experience, during or after your audit. If you don't see the audit option:
The course may not offer an audit option. You can try a Free Trial instead, or apply for Financial Aid.
The course may offer 'Full Course, No Certificate' instead. This option lets you see all course materials, submit required assessments, and get a final grade. This also means that you will not be able to purchase a Certificate experience.
When you enroll in the course, you get access to all of the courses in the Specialization, and you earn a certificate when you complete the work. Your electronic Certificate will be added to your Accomplishments page - from there, you can print your Certificate or add it to your LinkedIn profile. If you only want to read and view the course content, you can audit the course for free.
