How do you design a model serving system for low latency and high reliability?
Answer
Model serving is production engineering, not just ML.
Key decisions:
- Batch vs real-time inference
- Model format and runtime (ONNX/TensorRT)
- Caching and request shaping
- Autoscaling and timeouts
- Canary releases and rollback
Monitor latency (p95/p99), errors, and input drift. Keep model/version metadata so you can reproduce and debug predictions quickly.
