MLOps is the set of practices used to move machine learning from experiments into reliable production services. It connects data preparation, training pipelines, experiment tracking, model registries, automated testing, deployment, monitoring, and retraining with software engineering and operational controls. Unlike ordinary application code, a model can degrade when incoming data or real-world behavior changes even if no code was modified. MLOps therefore tracks data quality, performance, drift, lineage, versions, and infrastructure alongside uptime and errors. Effective implementation also defines approval gates, rollback procedures, security, cost controls, and clear ownership among data scientists, engineers, platform teams, and domain experts.
