The MLOps community started in March 2020 as a place for engineers and practitioners to get together and share their knowledge about operationalizing ML. Since its inception, it has morphed into a community of more than 3k members with an array of initiatives ranging from podcasts, meetups, reading groups, open office hours and Engineering Labs. In this talk Demetrios and Ivan will go through some of the greatest learnings from interviewing hundreds of MLOps practitioners to explaining the hands-on MLOps initiative; Engineering Labs.
