Features are essential to ML models. Therefore, a good feature infrastructure is important to any organization that wants to use ML properly in production. Feast is a great tool for building up your feature infrastructure. However, using Feast in production may need customization of your tech stack, extension for advanced use cases, and improvement of reliability and observability. In this talk, we will share the lessons learned from how Robinhood built a feature store from Feast.
