Monitoring models in production

Detect when models stop working well.

📖 Key ideas

  1. Monitor system metrics: latency, errors, throughput.
  2. Monitor data drift: input distributions change.
  3. Monitor concept drift: relationship between inputs and outcomes changes.
  4. Track prediction quality when labels arrive.
  5. Alert and retrain or roll back when needed.
💡 Real-life example: Model monitoring is a regular health check-up; problems caught early are easier to treat.
